چکیده

This report discusses control of dissolved oxygen in a bioreactor where the oxygen supply is manipulated using the stirrer speed. In batch and fed-batch cultivations the operating conditions change significantly which may cause tuning problems. Analysis using a linearized process model shows that the process dynamics is mainly affected by changes in the volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient KLa. To account for the process variations, a control strategy based on PID control and gain scheduling from the stirrer speed is suggested. This approach is straightforward to implement in an industrial control system. Experimental results from a laboratory reactor are presented.

Evaluation of the advanced micro-scale bioreactor (ambr™) as a highthroughput tool for cell culture process development

Introduction Bio-pharmaceutical industries face an increasing demand to accelerate process development and reduce costs. This challenge requires high throughput tools to replace the traditional combination of shake flasks and small-scale stirred tank bioreactors. A conventional and widely used process development tool is the stirred tank reactor (STR) ranging from approximately 1L to 10L in wor...

Modeling of Oxygen Supply Profiles in Stirred-Tank Aggregated Stem Cells Cultivation Process

This paper investigates a possible practical solution for reasonable oxygen supply during the pluripotent stem cells expansion processes, where the stem cells propagate as aggregates in stirred-suspension bioreactors. Low glucose and low oxygen concentrations are preferred for efficient proliferation of pluripotent stem cells. However, strong oxygen limitation, especially inside of cell aggrega...

Microbioreactor arrays with integrated mixers and fluid injectors for high-throughput experimentation with pH and dissolved oxygen control.

We have developed an integrated array of microbioreactors, with 100 microL working volume, comprising a peristaltic oxygenating mixer and microfluidic injectors. These integrated devices were fabricated in a single chip and can provide a high oxygen transfer rate (k(L)a approximately 0.1 s(-1)) without introducing bubbles, and closed loop control over dissolved oxygen and pH (+/-0.1). The syste...
