LAMBDA Pump-Flow INTEGRATOR-An economical alternative to Optical Density measurements for assessing cell growth rate and biomass production

Product catalog summary
Pump Flow Integrator Overview
The Pump Flow Integrator offers an economical alternative to Optical Density (OD) measurements for assessing cell growth and biotransformation during fermentation. It integrates the amount of acid or base added to compensate for the production of these substances by cells, providing precision similar to titration.

Advantages
  • Unaffected by dead cells, cell debris, air bubbles, precipitation, and coloration, unlike OD measurements.
  • Precise, easy-to-use, maintenance-free, and cost-effective.
  • Integrated within pumps to save bench space.

Applications
  • Control and quantification of metabolic activity during fermentation and cell cultures by monitoring parameters such as pH, rH, pO2, pCO2, and conductivity.
  • Measurement of enzyme activity for enzymes like esterases, acylases, lipases, and proteases using a pH stat.
  • Recording foam formation with automatic antifoam addition.
  • Recording the addition of reactants during exothermic reactions using a thermostat.
  • Recording the consumption of reactants during titrations.

LAMBDA Pump-Flow INTEGRATOR-An economical alternative to Optical Density measurements for assessing cell growth rate and biomass production-1

Watch your cells grow! Pump flow INTEGRATOR - an economical alternative to Optical Density (00) measurements During fermentation, cells produce acid or base which needs to be compensated. The INTEGRATOR in the pump integrates the amount of added acid or base. These data allow to assess cell growth or biotransformation with a precision similar to titration. Unlike in 00 measurements, the results are not affected with the presence of dead cells, cell debris, air bubbles, precipitation & coloration Precise, easy-to-use & maintenance free solution at low cost Integrated within the pumps to save your valuable bench-space Growth rate and Biomass as a function of time Titrate your cell's METABOLIC ACTIVITY! Control and quantification of the metabolic activity of cells during fermentation and cell cultures Eg. by control of pH, rH, p02, pC02, conductivity or other parameters Measurement of the enzyme activity of numerous enzymes Eg. esterases, acylases, lipases, proteases and others using a pH stat Recording foam formation (automatic antifoam addition) Recording the addition of reactants during exothermic reactions by a thermostat Recording of the consumption of reactants during titrations and much more applications LABORATORY INSTRUMENTS
