BIOne Autoclavable Bioreactor

Description

Distek's BIOne Autoclavable Bioreactor is a benchtop stirred-tank system intended for cell culture and fermentation processes. Its primary feature is a reusable glass vessel compatible with standard steam autoclaves for sterilization, offering an alternative to disposable systems. The bioreactor is offered in three total volume sizes: 2 liters, 5 liters, and 10 liters, accommodating a corresponding range of working volumes suitable for small-scale research and process development. This design supports applications including mammalian cell culture and microbial fermentation where consistent vessel geometry and sterility are required. The system is typically operated with an external controller to manage process variables like agitation speed, temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen levels. For laboratories with established autoclave infrastructure, this reusable vessel can contribute to reduced long-term consumable costs compared to single-use alternatives.
