Advanced Control Bioreactor System BR1000

The Advanced Control Bioreactor System BR1000 automates lab-scale mammalian cell culture with highly accurate real-time monitoring and advanced process control.

In-line sensor for measuring glucose and lactate concentrations

Based on YOKOGAWA's original calibration model and instrumentation, the concentration of glucose and lactic acid in the culture medium can be measured in real-time and with high accuracy based on the absorption characteristics of near-infrared light.

In-line sensor to measure live cell density

Based on YOKOGAWA's original calibration model, the live cell density can be measured in real time from changes in the capacitance characteristics of the cell suspension. The unique calibration model also maintains high accuracy throughout the entire cell culture timeline, from seeding to high cell densities.

Soft sensor for estimating glucose consumption rates in real time

A model prediction and control algorithm processes the data obtained by the in-line sensors and outputs a highly accurate glucose consumption rate trend in real time.

Rate of specific glucose consumption and specific lactate generation

Advanced control to automatically control glucose concentration

An advanced control algorithm designed specifically for cell culture provides accurate and automatic control of glucose based on in-line sensor values. Peristaltic pump systems dynamically deliver sterile glucose solution as needed to maintain the glucose set-point concentration value.
