MicroMatrix
The micro-matrix is a high-throughput system for the rapid screening and optimisation of both mammalian and microbial processes at microtitre scale.
The system offers independent process control of an individual well in a 24-deep well format which can be used as a scale-down model of small scale bioreactors. The system positions itself as an early stage process development tool which can be used for rapid screening experimentation, process development and optimisation studies.
Specification
- Independent temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen control per well (plate wide gradient)
- Orbital shaker for mixing
- Individual liquid additions (including feeding profiles)
- Independent gas supplies (air, N2, 02, CO2)
- Independent PID controller for temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen
- Advanced control strategies with cascade control for up to 5 actuators
- Working volume of 1 – 7mL
