Cedex® Bio – Bioanalyser for monitoring bioprocesses
The Cedex Bio® Analyzer is a multi-analyser for monitoring bioprocesses and fermentation. The wide range of measurable parameters allows the user of the Cedex Bio® to monitor the production as well as to develop and optimise growth conditions for mammalian, bacterial and yeast culture systems. The analysis of substrates, metabolites and products will be measured by photometric method. With its capacity of up to 8 samples, which can be continuously loaded during operation, and up to 13 freely selectable assays per reagent disk, the Cedex Bio® is recommended for low sample throughput.
Prioritising the samples enables fast and reliable results for quick decisions during ongoing processes. The Cedex Bio® can be expanded to up to 8 reagent disks and also offers a high degree of comparability of the results within different devices of the Cedex family. A comprehensive testing panel covers common assays. In addition, there are special parameters e.g. LDH, IgG, Magnesium, Calcium, Iron, GlutaMax and Total Protein available. Cedex Bio® Analyzer can be used in GMP-validated biopharmaceutical production processes and is compliant to GMP regulations, such as 21 CFR part 11.
