Product Info
The Biostat® B is a versatile, high-performance benchtop bioreactor and fermenter designed for both research and small-scale production. It is engineered to support a wide range of applications, including mammalian cell culture, microbial fermentation, and the development of vaccines and cell therapies.
Flexible Configuration and Scalability
-
Dual-Use Capability: The system is available in two primary formats:
-
Single-Use: Compatible with UniVessel® SU bioreactors (500 mL to 2 L), minimizing cleaning and sterilization downtime.
-
Autoclavable: Compatible with traditional glass UniVessel® units (1 L to 5 L) for reusable, cost-effective laboratory workflows.
-
-
Multi-Vessel Control: A single control tower can manage up to two culture vessels independently, allowing for parallel experimentation and process optimization within a compact footprint.
-
Process Transfer: Designed with geometric similarity to the larger Biostat® STR series, ensuring that parameters developed on the benchtop can be scaled up to 2,000 L production volumes.
Advanced Control and Monitoring
-
Integrated DCU Controller: Features a high-resolution touchscreen interface for real-time monitoring of pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), temperature, and agitation.
-
Precision Gas Management:
-
Equipped with up to four integrated mass flow controllers (MFC) per vessel.
-
Supports various aeration strategies (O2 enrichment, CO2 stripping, and N2 sparging) to maintain optimal gas transfer rates.
-
-
Integrated Pumps: Each control unit includes up to four peristaltic pumps for precise nutrient feeding, acid/base titration, and foam control.
-
External Integration: Features analog and digital I/O ports for connecting external sensors, scales, or BioPAT® analytical tools (such as Raman spectroscopy or viable cell density sensors).
Technical Features
-
Agitation: High-torque motors support a wide speed range, accommodating both the low-shear requirements of sensitive animal cells and the high oxygen demands of rapid microbial growth.
-
Temperature Control: Utilizes an integrated heating blanket or a cooling finger/coil system for precise thermal management between 8°C above coolant temperature and 80°C.
-
Automation Ready: Fully compatible with BioPAT® MFCS software for data logging, batch reporting, and advanced process control (APC).
Common Applications
-
Process Development: Rapid optimization of media, feeding strategies, and environmental parameters.
-
Cell Line Characterization: Studying the growth kinetics of CHO, HEK293, and insect cell lines.
-
Microbial Fermentation: High-density cultivation of E. coli, yeast, and fungi.
-
Small-Scale Production: Ideal for generating material for preclinical trials or specialized bioproducts.
