In-situ Filter Sampling Probes - Sterilizable, Disposable, Cell Free

The Groton Biosystems’ sampling probes permit extraction of cell-free samples from  bioreactors.   The probe can be used with the Groton ARS-M Automated Reactor Sampling System or for manual sample acquisition.

The sampling probe can be sterilized in-situ and is available for 12 and 25 mm ports for laboratory, pilot and commercial scale use.

Design Features

  • Provides Cell Free Samples for Analysis
  • In-situ Fluid Sampling
    • Withdraw using a syringe, peristaltic pump and/or the Groton ARS-M Sampling System
  • Autoclavable
  • Sample Multiple Times throughout your Cycle
  • Low Dead Volume
  • Easy Installation and Maintenance
  • Ideal for Manual and Automatic sampling 
    • Interfaces to the  Groton Automated Reactor Sampling Systems (ARS-M) for automated  delivery of filtered media to Sample Collector, HPLCs, Nutrient Monitors, and other instruments
  • Robust performance over multiple day cell culture cycles
    • Withstands typical bioreactor environments – temperature, pressure, viscosities, and chemicalsInSitu Filter Probe
  • Features a nonbinding inert surface that resists clogging - (PTFE)
  • Side Port and Top Port
  • Adaptable to glass reactor headplates
  • 12  mm & 25mm port sizes available for headplate reactors and sideport SIP reactors
  • Filter probe can be easily replaced after every reactor cycle to assure maximum filtration performance
  • Extensions are available to position filter at ideal depth in the reactor
  • Fluid flow rate is dependent on the viscosity of the media
Applications
Mammalian Cell Cultures, E. coli, Yeast, Aerobic or Anaerobic Cultures, Other Bacteria  fungi, algae, insect cell cultures.  Recommended flow rate is 0.5 to 2.0 ml/min
