Bioreactor Habitat Ferment
HABITAT research is a smart benchtop bioreactor and fermenter from IKA, designed for both cell culture and microbial fermentation. As the first bioreactor with a lid stand, it ensures ergonomic working and a well-organized laboratory, ideal for various bioprocessing applications.
To operate HABITAT research, you only need a control unit package and a vessel package. For sensitive mammalian cell culture techniques, select the cell variant, with gassing rates from 0 - 2000 cc/min. For microbial fermentation, we recommend the ferment variant, with gassing rates of 0 - 20,000 cc/min. The photobioreactor version with LED panels is perfect for photosynthetic organisms.
Each package offers precise temperature control and pH control, essential for optimal cell growth and fermentation processes. The suffix 'cct' in each package indicates connection options for three additional sensors: turbidity, CO2, and conductivity, enhancing your ability to monitor cell culture media and fermentation progress.
The HABITAT ferment control tower offers an optimized bioreactor-solution for fermentation applications, enabling precise monitoring and control of fermentation processes. It consists of a control unit with comprehensive connectivity options for gas supply, liquid addition, multi-parameter sensors, and temperature regulation, along with a user-friendly tablet interface for seamless bioreactor operation and control.
