Bioreactors Rely on Mass Flow Controllers to Maintain a Controlled Environment in Biopharmaceutical Manufacturing
Brooks Instrument SLA Series mass flow controllers have been delivering efficient, long-lasting process control in bioprocessing for decades. Engineered to deliver superior long-term drift stability and the best mean-time-between-failures (MTBF) in the industry, SLA5800 & SLAMf mass flow controllers have earned a reputation of being an industry standard in life sciences applications.
Mass Flow Controllers Deliver Precise Gas Flows to Produce Cell-Cultured Meat
In order to grow, the cells are placed in a bioreactor where they are fed sugars, salts, vitamins, and amino acids. In addition to these nutrients, there are crucial measurements to be monitored in the bioreactor - the pH level must be accurately controlled along with the amount of dissolved oxygen (DO) needed for the recipe. To maintain tight control of the pH and DO, Brooks Instrument SLA Series Biotech mass flow controllers were selected to measure and control nitrogen, oxygen, air and carbon dioxide to nurture cells at scale.
Non-Invasive Flow Measurement in Perfusion Systems Using Clamp-On Ultrasonic Technology
The Brooks Instrument BCU Series Clamp-On Ultrasonic Flow Meter provides a reliable solution for monitoring flow in perfusion systems without compromising sterility.
