Our capabilities for the Bioreactor market

In the process using bioreactors and fermenters dedicated gas flow control is needed. This means that to let biological content grow in a reactor, multiple gas flow streams have to be controlled accurately. Biological growth and synthesis are delicate processes that depend on the ultimate reliable behaviour of our mass flow instruments and the compatibility to those processes. Bronkhorst understands the special needs of equipment users and quality professionals in biotechnology. The below table shows which features and options are available to address those special needs in bioreactor flow control processes. 

Reliability and reproducibility are key in bioreactor and fermenter processes, especially for flow control. Read below in the table the mass flow controller features for bioreactors and biotechnology.
