Sartorius showcased the new Sensolux stand-alone version, a shaker platform equipped with an optical sensor system for monitoring pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) saturation during cultivation of animal cells. This first member of the Sensolux family is an attractive tool for obtaining conclusive results in the early process development phase, e.g., for advanced clone screening and media optimization. Used in combination with the single-use Erlenmeyer flasks Sensolux EF, the shaker platform facilitates easy, non-invasive, reliable and informative online measurement of these crucial process parameters in incubation shakers.
