The AutoReact™ Mini-Bioreactor System provides a revolutionary change in the process of cell culture and fermentation testing. Using a 24-chamber bioreactor vessel with the footprint of a standard microplate, the system automatically loads, samples and feeds cells growing under 24 independent reaction conditions simultaneously. The AutoReact frees the user from any need to manually sample or monitor any of its 24 reactions even for runs lasting days. The entire system fits easily within a standard bio-safety cabinet.
Finally, researchers can perform high-throughput cell culturing and optimization without burdensome manual attention. The AutoReact System employs the Cellerator™ bioreactor from MicroReactor Technologies along with Hudson Control Group's PlateCrane EX® and LabLinx® robotic microplate loading systems.
Hudson's automation of the sampling and feeding of the individual process tubes ensures accurate, traceable results through Hudson's Softlinx scheduling and data-tracking software.
The AutoReact System takes the place of the large and costly, room-sized shake flask reactor setups common in most labs where cell line growth is done. The typical large flasks are replaced by a microplate-footprint tube rack that takes the place of 24 flask setups. The automation frees up many manhours now necessary for tending the flasks and determining feeding and sampling events.
