Aquila -Â Model BioR -Cell Growth Quantifier (CGQ)
The CGQ BioR allows for non-invasive online monitoring of biomass in bioreactors. Backscatter measurements are used to monitor the biomass non-invasively through the glass wall of the bioreactor. Our technology is compatible with various types and sizes of bioreactors. This enables you to follow the growth of your culture in real time and generate profound bioprocess understanding.
For a broad range of organisms
- Bacteria, fungi, yeast, algae and more
Compatible with various scales of bioreactors
- Mini bioreactor systems, bench top bioreactors, production scale and more
Non-invasive measurements
- Attach the sensor to the outside of your bioreactor with our adapter
Highly parallelized measurements
- Monitor up to 64 bioreactors in parallel on one laptop
Easy to install and use
- A plug and play technology with an intuitive user interface
A cost-effective solution
- An affordable technology for one of the key bioprocess parameters
What does the CGQ BioR measure?
Using an array of LEDs and photodiodes, the BioR sensor can adaptively measure the backscatter intensity.
How is scattered light used to measure biomass?
The CGQ BioR implements the well-known technique of light scattering with light source and sensor mounted directly to the wall of the bioreactor. Depending on the current biomass concentration inside the bioreactor, different amounts of light are scattered towards the sensor.
