Identification of flow properties in biosuspensions

  • Published:
Biotechnology Techniques

Summary

The experimental technique with piezoelectric mechanico-electrical transducer and stirring intensity meter (SIM) makes possible to measure the distribution of the local kinetic energy of turbulence in aseptic conditions of heterogeneous nontransparent fermentation broth. This information plays an important role in bioprocess development and in the bioreactor performance.
