Introduction
The MiniBio range of bioreactors (250 ml, 500 ml and 1000 ml total volume) is a true scale down of the laboratory scale bioreactors in the 1 to 15 liter range. The MiniBio systems have the same flexibility as the laboratory scale bioreactors. This means that the MiniBio systems can be customized to fit the demands of any process. The small volume reduces medium costs and reduces the use expensive bench space.
Functions of mini bioreactors:
- Generate more data in less time
- Easy setup and operation
- Cultivate using less medium
- Cultivate using les bench space
- Generate scalable results
- Mimic lab scale bioreactors
- Easy data handling
my-Control
my-Control is a dedicated control system for the small scale bioreactors. One control system can control:
- 250 ml up to 1000 ml MiniBio bioreactors
- 1l up to 3 liter Autoclavable bioreactors
- 3 liter Cellready single use bioreactors
Features of the my-Control:
- PID and autotuning adaptive control
- Operation via webbrowser, iPod, iPhone or iPad
- 1 up to 32 parallel my-Controllers per network
- Integrated amplifiers for agitation, pH, DO, Temperature, Level and foam
- Actuators for up to 6 variable speed pumps or micro valve additions, up to 4 Mass Flow Controllers, Heating and Cooling (via Peltier or heating blanket),condenser cooling (Peltier or cooling water)
- Spare I/O: 8 x digital output, 4 x analog in (0 – 10 V), 4 x analog out (0/4 – 20 mA)
- USB connection for Biomass or Fluorophor pH and DO
