Help to Optimise and Control Bioprocessing and Life Science Applications

Xylem’s (USA) YSI brand 2900 Series Biochemistry Analyzers constitute an essential part of many stages of bioprocessing and life sciences applications due to their ability to accurately and rapidly monitor and control fermentations and cell cultures. 

YSI biochemistry analysers offer both offline and online analysis of critical samples for companies that manufacture vaccines, small molecules, alcoholic beverages, chemicals, and biofuels. The YSI 2900 Series includes the 2900, the 2950, and the recently launched 2900M biochemistry analysers. 

Whether it is in R&D, bioreactor optimisation, scale-up or production, the need for accurate measurement of key analytes is important, but obtaining such measurements in real-time is paramount. YSI biochemistry analysers are able to measure, monitor, and control processes accurately, easily, and quickly (under 1 minute) due to their innovative biosensor technology. 

To obtain high product yields in biotech or pharmaceutical applications, the metabolism and health of the cell cultures have to be assessed regularly. And there’s a crucial need to monitor key nutrients (glycerol, lactose, etc.) and by-products (ammonium, lactate, etc.) levels, and to adjust feed rates on the bioreactor accordingly in a quick manner in order to maximise cell growth.  The YSI 2900 Series biochemistry analysers offer accurate, rapid, and reproducible methods to measure and monitor the process. Ultimately, companies experience successful completion of their cell cultures, higher production, and increased profit with less labor time.

The YSI biochemistry analysers are also cost-effective and easy-to-use, which translates into reduced labour hours and lower capital expenditures, and ultimately a positive impact on the bottom line.
