Microfluidic FlowerPlate

Gen2 Microfluidic FlowerPlate microtiter plate

The patented FlowerPlate MTP is optimized for orbital shakers with a 3 mm orbit.

The plates for online cultivations have a clear bottom and are available without optodes or with pH and DO optodes.

Performance

• Accurate liquid transfer: C_V of pumped liquid volumes ≤ 6%
• Multiparameter reading possible in 32 parallel bioreactors
• Flower shape acts like baffles (suitable for cultivations of bacteria and yeast)
• High mass transfer OTR = 30-110 mmol/L/h (k_La = 100-650 h^-1)
• Wide volume range (800-1900 μL)
• Maximum: 665 pump strokes per hour
• Scalability to production fermentors
• No optical cross talk
• Effective mixing
