Our laboratory is equipped with multiple pure culture bioreactor systems for sterile fermentation processes at different working volumes. These platforms enable precise control of critical parameters including temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, agitation, and aeration, ensuring reproducible and scalable microbial cultivation.

Our infrastructures includes:

• Bionet systems: Four units, including three 3 L reactors and one system supporting a 10 L vessel.

• Sartorius Biostat® B Plus systems: Three reactors with 2 L, 5 L, and 10 L vessels.

• Solaris systems: Two units compatible with 2 L, 3 L, and 5 L vessels.

This wide range of reactor volumes allows flexible scale-up strategies and process optimisation for sterile fermentations. In our laboratory, these systems are primarily used for the production of biopolymers, including polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), exopolysaccharides (EPS), and other microbial-derived bioproducts.

Open mixed culture systems fully equipped acquisition and control of pH, temperature and dissolved oxygen, monitored and control through programing logic controllers.
