Description
The BioPAT®Viamass biomass measurement system enables the field-proven sensor technology used for decades in stainless steel fermenters to be utilized in single-use bioreactors. Based on impedance spectroscopy, this sensor technology measures the specific capacitance of the culture medium and the cells, providing an excellent correlation to viable biomass. Integrated into the bioreactor’s DCU and Biobrain®Control system, BioPAT®Viamass permits automatic monitoring and control of viable biomass.
Reduces the need for manual sampling, lower risk of contamination due to lower sampling needs
Easy to use plug and play operation for rapid cell expansion
Real-time measurement of and feedback on viable biomass
Decreased labor and laboratory costs for offline analysis
Ensures batch-to-batch consistency
Improved data gathering
Eliminates operator influence that occurs in manual biomass measurements
