Sensors

Viable Cell Density
With a Fogale Nanotech evo 200 you can monitor the volume of live cells in the fermentor. Solids and gas bubbles are not measured!
It is even possible to measure the cell size distribution, using frequency scanning.

Cell Density (OD) with Laser
The Finesse TruCell2 sensor is a near-infrared light absorption sensor that comprises a ø12 mm sensor probe, selectable from a variety of configurations, a cable, and a transmitter.
TruCell2 performs in-situ measurement of Cell Count in real time for both Cell Culture and Fermentation applications.

Optical DO and Polarographic DO
Finesse TruDO Optical oxygen sensor will measure the dissolved oxygen concentration accurately down to 10 ppb. This sensor uses fluorescence rather than acid, anode and cathode like traditional oxygen sensors.
You get a very stable sensor with very little maintenance, and it can even be used as stand-alone or connected to traditional oxygen transmitter.

pH
The 12 mm pH electrodes are designed for improved performance and reliability in cell culture and fermentation applications.
A pH electrode includes the reference and sensing electrodes, and an electrical connector. Electrodes with VP (VarioPin) connector, has build-in Pt100 sensor, for temperature compensation.
All Finesse TrupH electrodes endure SIP, CIP and are autoclavable
