Trial noninvasive technology to monitor and feed the culture

Monitoring that never opens the vessel, and feeding that responds to the culture instead of a fixed schedule. We are opening a limited trial programme and we want to size it around real labs. Tell us what you run and what you would want to try.

What you get

Sensors, and feeders if you want them, on your own vessels. Installation support is provided, and data analysis support whenever you need it.

What we ask

Run them alongside whatever you use today, for up to three months. Extendable to six if agreed beforehand. The data is entirely yours, with full publication rights. We ask only that you cite the system when you publish.

How many places

We are starting with 20 to 50 pilots, so places are limited. We match units to labs as registrations come in.

Left: sampling a flask by pipette gives a sparse, gappy growth curve. Right: the same flask with the device fitted gives a continuous curve with lag, acceleration, deceleration and stationary phases marked. Below: shelves of instrumented shake flasks running in parallel in an incubator.

About you

Name, email and institution are the three things we need to reach you about a trial slot. Everything else on this page is optional.

Your name required Work email required

Institution or company required Your role optional

What you culture

Pick everything you work with. This is how we decide which sensors to send you.

Which one?

In what vessels?

Which one?

What size are the flasks or bioreactors?

The size of the vessel itself, not the culture inside it. This is what a sensor has to physically fit.

And the typical working volume inside them?

What brand are they?

Dimensions differ between brands at the same nominal size, so this is how we make sure what we send actually fits.

What feed do you use?

How many flasks or bioreactors do you run at once?

This is the number that decides how many units you would need, so a rough count beats a blank.

Vessels running in parallel Runs per month optional

How you monitor today

Whatever you use now, including nothing at all.

What bothers you most about it?

Anything else? optional, in your own words

The trial

Rough numbers are fine. Nothing here commits you to anything.

How many units would you want to try?

Type a number. Leave anything you do not want at zero.

What would make this trial a success for you? optional

If you like it, would you buy it?

An honest answer is far more useful to us than a generous one. Nothing here is an order or a commitment.

How many units would you buy?

Not how many you want to try. How many you would want to own.

Where would the money come from?

Indicative budget optional

Pick a range, or type a figure if you have one in mind. US dollars.

Or a specific amount, USD

Confirm and sign

We email you a copy of everything you have entered, and we use it to work out how many units to build and who to send them to.

I understand this is a non-binding agreement and that it commits me to nothing. You may store these details and contact me about the trial programme.
