FAQ

What is bioprocessing?

Bioprocessing is defined as the production of value-added substances utilizing living cells, microorganisms, or their components (e.g., enzymes). Penicillium chrysogenum produces penicillin, an illustrative example of bioprocessing.

What is bioreactor fermentation?

The biochemical reaction of anaerobic decomposition of organic compounds by enzymes produced by microorganisms allows microorganisms to obtain the energy they need for their life processes.

What is cell culture?

Cell culture is the process of growing cells outside their natural environment under controlled laboratory conditions. CHO (Chinese hamster ovary) cell cultures are an example of such cultures widely used in biopharmaceutical production.

What is cell culture media?

Microbial and cell culture media contain all the essential ingredients required for the development and growth of cultured organisms. The primary cell culture medium contains the amino acids, glucose, and ions (calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and phosphate) necessary for cell survival and growth. L-glutamine is an essential amino acid for protein and nucleic acid synthesis and energy production in cell culture.

What is a bioreactor?

A bioreactor is a vessel that enables cells or microorganisms to be cultured under controlled conditions to produce the desired product. The control parameters may include gas supply, temperature, pH, and agitation.

Bioreactor vs Photobioreactor - what's the difference?

The photobioreactor design technically differs because it has a light source, which can be integrated light-emitting diodes (LEDs) or separate panels. Bioreactors can support different types of microorganisms and plant or animal cells, while photobioreactors are mainly designed for photosynthesizing organisms.

What are the challenges of bioreactor-driven processes?

  • - Contamination and infection are among the biggest challenges when conducting bioreactor processes. Maintaining internal sterility during all stages of bioproduction is extremely important and affects the final product and bioproduction efficiency.
  • - Human error - errors in media preparation, bioreactor handling, or sampling can result in contamination or inappropriate culture conditions.
  • - Optimization of conditions and scalability - when scaling up to larger bioreactors, culture conditions such as mixing, aeration, and media composition need to be adjusted.
  • - Monitoring and control of bioprocesses. The complexity and sensitivity of biological systems, high sterility requirements, and difficulties with real-time measurements all make it necessary to have advanced technology and expertise to maintain optimal production conditions.

How do I choose the right bioreactor?

When you're picking the right bioreactor, it's essential to think about:
  • - What kind of microorganism you're working with (yeast, bacteria, algae, cell lines)
  • - What the microorganism needs (e.g., phototrophic organisms will require a light source)
  • - Scale (lab scale, pilot scale, industrial scale)
  • - How you want to culture the microorganism (batch, feed-batch, continuous)
  • - The type of bioreactor
  • - A monitoring and control system
  • - Which material do you prefer for constructing the reactor (such as steel, glass, or single-use plastic)
