Air Lift Bioreactor

Product Summary
Some of the cell lines are so fragile in culture that any type of mechanical impeller will shear them. A serious alternative to an impeller driven system is the one that uses forced air to circulate the cells and growth media.

Shear sensitive cell systems require special reactors. Air lift reactor is a 

100_0645

class of reactors where no stirrer is employed & glass columns are employed as the vessel. The draft tube  divides the column into two halves one for inflow & the other for outflow. Addition of a circulation pump and a reservoir vessel facilitates adaptation of regular control systems adaptable. Our system design permits use of different size & porosities frit discs. This enhances the Oxygen transfer by reducing the bubble size and the residence time the bubble stays in the column.
