Compact bioreactor/fermenter is specially designed as an entry-level model for fermentation and cell culture as well as for educational purposes. The Biostat A system’s control tower comes with measurement and control functions including easy-load peristaltic pumps, an aeration module and conveniently accessible probe ports and supply connections. With a compact footprint, the instrument saves valuable space in the lab.
A new aeration system provides automatic control of all gas lines with continuous gas flows. This means no further manual adjustment of rotameters is necessary and any problem with pulsed aeration is a non-issue. The system is easy to operate: the user just connects the aeration hoses, configures the aeration profile and enters the DO setpoint. Using the instrument for cell culture applications, aeration with four gases (air, O2, CO2 and N2) is possible for controlling pH and DO. The microbial version allows aeration with two gases (air and O2).
An intuitive user interface makes operating the new bioreactor suitable for beginners because it prevents operating errors and reduces training time to a minimum. Sartorius
