Biosensor - Model SMAlgal - Fluorescence BioSensor Systems - Brochure

System of Measurement for Algae (SMA) is a small portable instrument to optically characterize the fluorescence emission and the optical density (correlated to a cell density) of algae culture (e.g Haematococcus pluvialis, Spirulina sp. Chlorella minutissima, etc.). It is possible to connect the SMA instument directly to a by-pass of a bioreactor to monitor the algae culture condition. Keyboard and display can be used to set-up the parameters. It is important to verify the cleaning procedures above all for OD measurements and the dark time for the fluorescence emission.
