Stainless steel bioreactors
to meet your every need
Stainless steel bioreactors are at the core of every biotechnology system. Therefore, you need them to be highly modular, adaptable and user-friendly to create an efficient and accurate process. Applikon bioreactors are easy to set up and provide an introduction to Sterilizatrion-in-Place (SIP) bioreactor regimes. This applies to the standardized BioBench and BioPilot, plus the tailor-made BioProduction systems.
Compact design
The Applikon stainless steel bioreactors are a great fit if you are worried about bench or floor space. Their compact footprint means they occupy minimal space in the lab, without compromising on quality.
Scale up your bioprocess
From bench to pilot to full production – the Applikon bioreactors simplify your scale-up through consistent design and scalable control solutions. The standard bioreactors come in a wide range of volumes for both microbial and cell culture applications. Additionally, as a trusted pilot scale bioreactor manufacturer, Applikon offers various standard add-on modules to help you customize the stainless steel systems to meet specific application demands.
Tailor-Made solutions
For those who need large-scale productions, you can choose a completely customized solution. Using modern technologies, advanced communication tools, verification tests and full documentation, the entire process is easy. From initial idea to final product, we can help make a system that exceeds your expectations.
Furthermore, our highly trained team at Resea Biotech guarantee the best after sales support to ensure your systems stay in optimal working condition throughout its lifecycle.
Industrial control solutions for every need.
For the stainless steel BioBench, BioPilot and BioProduction, there is a selection of hardware and software available to control the bioreactors.
The dedicated controllers for the bioreacors are:
However, combination packages of hardware and software are also available. These inclue:
On top of controllers, you can also be sure your sensors are of the highest quality, thanks to the collaboration with prominent sensor suppliers. The following are available as options for Applikon bioreactor systems:
Results that are easy to reproduce.
With an easy set-up and using state-of-the-art controllers, you can enable precise control of your fermentation or cultivation run. This allows you to produce reproducible results every single time.
Easy to use and clean.
Applikon stainless steel bioreactors are designed for ease of use. All bioreactors come with an electropolished surface finish of Ra ≤ 0.4 micron. This means any biofilms or debris will not stick to the inside of the bioreactors and significantly simplifies the cleaning procedure of the BioBench, BioPilot and BioProduction systems. You can have peace of mind knowing your bioreactors will always be clean and sterile.
