Oxygen is the essential element of life and its measurement resembles a central point in controlling biotechnological processes. Applying BPC-O2 gas analyzers oxygen concentrations can be measured in situ directly from the exhaust gas flow. In combination with a bioprocess software (such as BlueVIS) the BCP-O2 can be used to calculate essential respiration parameters as OUR (oxygen uptake rate) and RQ (respiratory quotient). The BCP-O2 can be connected to the exhaust vent of any type or scale of fermenter and bioreactor, allowing you to scale up using the same measurement technology at every step. All BCP-analyzers are available with aluminum (pilot to industrial scale use) or PA (lab scale) casings.
