Lab-scale fermentors for microbial cultivation
In research and development, producing high-quality microbial cultures requires systems that offer precise environmental control. Challenges include maintaining optimal oxygen levels, temperature precision, and ensuring bio-safety standards.
Customizable fermentors for precise microbial cultivation
The lab-scale fermentors by Bioengineering are designed for microbial cultivation with a focus on R&D and university applications. These fermentors are available in both autoclavable and in-situ sterilizable configurations, ranging from benchtop to pilot scale. They leverage the advanced BioSCADA software, the same used in large production plants, for seamless scale-up. Key features include customized vessel geometry (h:d = 3:1), optimized oxygen supply strategies, and integrated dosage vessels for acids, bases, and anti-foams. The systems ensure short heating and cooling periods to maintain media quality and process efficiency. Suitable for a diverse range of microorganisms such as bacteria, archaea, yeast, and extremophiles, these fermentors cater to various process requirements from anaerobic conditions to high oxygen demand and GMP production.
