CGQ BioR sensor

Non-invasive online biomass monitoring in bioreactors 

The CGQ BioR is a sensor attached to the glass wall of the bioreactor and the biomass will be measured optically. As a user-friendly plug and play technology, the sensor is compatible with the Minifors 2 bioreactor, thus enabling new possibilities of bioprocess control. 

Advantages

Inline SVG icon

Ideal for a wide range of scientific applications

Directly comparing growth curves allows scientists to screen a variety of media and bacterial strains in detail, thereby optimizing bioprocess conditions and cell clones in very little time.

Make sense of your bioprocess

Creating a seamless record of biomass concentration allows you to detect bioprocess changes in real time. This lets you identify limitations, inhibiting factors, and contamination at an early stage. Reproducibility is increased due to a lower error rate when compared with manual biomass measurement.

A sensor for every need

Its two measurement modes allow the CGQ BioR to take exact measurements within an OD range of 0.5 to 500 with just one sensor.
