Product Description
The BioPAT
®
Trace | Multi Trace analysis system is used for simultaneous
online monitoring of the analytes glucose and lactate in laboratory or
industrial cultivations of microorganisms and cell lines.
An additional application for the measurement of ethanol or methanol
isavailable.
The BioPAT
®
Trace | Multi Trace provides continual analysis independent of
the type of cultivation (batch, fed-batch, continuous cultivation).
The measurement range of the BioPAT
®
Trace | Multi Trace extends from 0.1
to 40 g/L for glucose, from 0.05 to 10 g/L for lactate, from 0.5 to 20 g/L for
methanol and from 1 to 40 g/L for ethanol.
Depending on the conditions, the measurement frequency is 30 analyses per
hour maximum. Due to the device’s structured design and easy-to-operate
concept, the user can perform routine analysis functions after just a brief
introduction.
The ambient temperature of the BioPAT
®
Trace | Multi Trace can lie between
15 and 35 °C due to internal temperature correction. The ambient humidity
should not exceed 90%.
Analysis in the BioPAT
®
Trace | Multi Trace is a combination of enzymatic
conversion and electrochemical detection. A 2-channel enzyme electrode
coated with oxidase or a combination of an enzyme reactor with a platinum
electrode (methanol | ethanol, (Glucose | lactate) application) serves as the
biosensor. Depending on the application, the service life of the sensor system
ensures 30 days or 5,000 measurements. The deviation from the average
measurement is less than 3% for a measurement of 5 g/L of glucose and
2.5 g/L of lactate. For more information please request the BioPAT
