Personal multi-channel bioreactor with non-invasive real time biomass

Description

The RTS-8 is a personal bioreactor that utilizes patented Reverse-Spin® technology that applies non-invasive, mechanically driven, low energy consumption, innovative type of agitation. Cell suspension is mixed by the single-use falcon bioreactor tube rotation around its axis with a change of direction of rotation motion resulting in high efficient mixing and oxygenation for aerobic cultivation.

  • Parallel cultivation of 8 tube bioreactors enables to save time and resources for bioprocess optimization
  • Individually controlled bioreactor accelerates optimization process
  • Possibility to cultivate microaerophilic and obligate anaerobic microorganisms (not strict anaerobic conditions)
  • Reverse–Spin® mixing principle enables non-invasive biomass measurement in real time
  • Near-infrared optical system makes it possible to register cell growth kinetics
  • Free of charge software for storage, demonstration and analysis of data in real time
  • Compact design with low profile and small footprint for personal application
  • Individual temperature control for bioprocess applications
  • Active cooling for rapid temperature control, e.g. for temperature fluctuation experiments
  • Task profiling for process automatization
  • Cloud data storage to remotely monitor the process of cultivation while at home or using a mobile phone
