On-Line Glucose & Lactate Analyzer: MAVEN
Get faster process insights and dynamic control of substrate feeding without the loss of bioreactor or fermenter volume.
Keep Your Cells Happy
Fluctuations in glucose levels, associated with infrequent measurements and bolus feeding, may cause metabolic deregulation and undesirable process deviations.
That’s where MAVEN comes in. It has your back, automatically monitoring and controlling glucose and lactate concentrations, helping you realize your PAT strategy.
Precise & Sterile Measurement
MAVEN’s measurement cell connects to a diffusion probe installed in your bioreactor via a pre-configured tubing set. Only glucose and lactate molecules are small enough to diffuse through the semipermeable membrane into the buffer fluid, meaning there is no loss of bioreactor volume and no increased risk of process contamination.
Trusted Biosensor Design
Biosensors’ enzymatic recognition and selectivity for glucose and lactate generates an electrical signal proportional to analyte’s concentration.
- Sensor type: Enzyme-based electrochemical biosensor
- Glucose measurement range: From 0.01 to 40 g/L concentration
- Lactate measurement range: From 0.05 to 10 g/L concentration
Plug-and-Play Feeding Automation
- In addition to providing real-time measurements, MAVEN comes with integrated PID and on/off controllers that enable out-of-the-box feeding automation. Just connect MAVEN to an external feed pump and configure control setpoints.
- Integrated PID and On/Off controllers for out-of-the-box feeding automation
- Digital communication via OPC UA or Modbus TCP
- Standard analog outputs with milliamp or voltage signals
MAVEN Loves to Collaborate
Reusable autoclavable and single-use probes and flow cells make MAVEN compatible with most types and sizes of bioreactors and fermenters.
Improve process understanding and develop process control and feeding strategies in the lab and use the same PAT technology to achieve a more robust process control in clinical and commercial manufacturing.
