Advanced Software

The software platform is designed to support biological models based on physical parameters to control automatically growth of cells. Control of the culture is based on the de!ned recipes for protein production with e. coli, pichia pastoris, customized recipes or as a classic fermentor to design a speci!c recipe to become fully automated. This innovative and unique method of supervision, lead to a concept where cells are managing the process instead of using only the physical parameters as the way to manage and control a fermentation run.

Remote Monitored Fermentations

The built-in recipes are:

• Recipe 1: Single chemical induction without temperature shift
• Recipe 2: Single chemical induction with one temperature shift
• Recipe 3: Single chemical induction with two temperature shifts
• Recipe 4: Periodic chemical induction without temperature shift
• Recipe 5: Periodic chemical induction with one temperature shift
• Recipe 6: Dual chemical inductions without temperature shift
• Recipe 7: Dual chemical inductions with two temperature shifts
• Recipe 8: Thermal induction with two temperature shifts
• Recipe 9: Single chemical induction in fed-batch process culture

In addition there are optional software modules available, like speci!c biological recipes custom made to the target protein to be expressed. In combination with the built-in software, the biopod is a concept fully designed to change the way fermentor performance must be achieved with less running time and less complexity.
