Fermentation: Precise gas control for reproducible processes

Reproducible processes are key Fermentation processes involving microorganisms – such as bacteria or mammalian cells – play a key role these days in the production of medicines, chemicals, amino acids and much more. Decisive for the quality of the end product during fermentation: Precise control of gas quantities. It must match the needs of the ever-increasing cultures. Reproducible processes are the key for precise control: Identical processes: Gas dosing data can be retrieved at any time Optimum end products: Selectively controlling gases according to the respective process step Mass flow controller: Precise and repeatable gas control Be it research laboratory or pilot plant: Bürkert mass flow controllers (MFCs) make the fermentation process reproducible. Since setting of the flow rate can be automated with repeat accuracy. Using just one device, you can control standard fermenter gases such as air, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide according to the needs of your cultures. Advantages of Bürkert MFCs: Fermenter gases: Calibrate up to four different gases Approval: Compliant with USP Class VI, FDA and available with 3.1 certificate No fermentation contamination: Parts that come into contact with media are made of stainless steel Wide setting range: Precise control of ultra-small to large gas quantities thanks to direct- measuring sensors In contrast to measurements with floats and needle valves, MFCs guarantee identical processes. You also benefit from all the advantages of digitalisation, such as data that can be retrieved at any time.
