Monitor de Fermentaciones Alcohólicas
The Anaerobic Fermentation Monitor (or AFM) is a robust and user-friendly laboratory parallel fermentation system that allows for accurate comparisons of carbon conversion rates and yields for six simultaneous anaerobic fermentations.
Monitoring the amount of gas that evolves from a fermentation broth under well controlled conditions is a reliable comparison method that has proven to be very useful in all industries that use anaerobic fermentations. Because carbon dioxide production is stoichiometrically coupled with carbon source conversion, very useful metabolic data can be obtained.
Features
- User-friendly laboratory device for monitoring anaerobic, metabolic yeast activity for alcohol production
- Six independent yeast fermentations can be carried out simultaneously
- Stirrer speeds and temperatures can be set or time programmed for each fermenter flask individually
- fermenter flask individually Accurate comparison of conversion rates and yields under different conditions such as temperature, strain type, carbon source or nutrients
- Much easier to operate and cleaner than standard fermenter systems
- Fully controlled with user-friendly PC control and data analysis software Automatic generation of advanced reports containing all measured data, data analysis tables, and corresponding graphs
- Very strong magnetic stirrers, able to handle very viscous media
- Proven value for research and QA purposes in all fields of yeast research and (bio) ethanol production
