INTEGRATED OXYGEN MEASUREMENT AND CONTROL FOR STATIC CULTURE VESSELS

摘要

A system and method for measuring and controlling oxygen in a culture vessel utilizes a non-invasive oxygen sensor and an agitator. A controller controls the agitator based on feedback supplied by the oxygen sensor. The agitator is used to increase oxygen transport into the liquid phase thereby raising the level of oxygen in the culture medium. The agitator driven equilibration results in precise control of the culture medium oxygen.
