From Beckman Coulter Life SciencesJun 6 2023Reviewed by Maria Osipova For the first time, this new advancement enables work with light-dependent organisms that need to perform photosynthesis to grow.
The Light Array Module provides customizable light settings of 400-700 nm within the photosynthetic spectrum, including day and nighttime lighting. The spectral flexibility is achieved by 16 different LED-types, which can each be controlled individually to deliver maximum irradiances and photon flux densities of up to 3500 µmol/m2/s .
This powerful new feature uniquely empowers customers with cutting-edge technology to accelerate answers toward their next big breakthrough moment. Our Light Array Module provides researchers with customizable illumination for organisms growing inside the microbioreactor, for the first time enabling photosynthesis, which can provide deeper analysis and richer reporting without interruption.
Following its launch in May of 2021, the BioLector XT Microbioreactor has earned a loyal following. Equipped with patented FlowerPlate microtiter plate technology, it enables high-throughput strain screening, cultivation parameter monitoring, and feeding strategy optimization. The BioLector XT Microbioreactor is ideally suited for microbial, fungal, and algal cultivations with real-time evaluations of biomass, pH, dissolved oxygen , and fluorescence for aerobes and anaerobes.
