Just edd medium, inooulm ond eIeBorioiyThe BioFlo is a 350 ml chemostat, fully equipped for ex-panding the study of microbial physiology in growingcell populations. Priced at only $990, the BioFlo has afull range of sophisticated instrumentation for controlof agitation, aeration, temperature and substrate addi-tion. You can even add pH and dissolved oxygen con-trol. This bench-top chemostat makes it possible tostudy under steady-state or transient conditions, thecomposition and physiology of the cell, as a functionof growth rate, temperature, pH and growth-limitingnutrients. Every essential component is supplied forsimple, aseptic operation-from the feed, harvest andculture vessels to the tubing, clamps and filters. It evenhas its own air pump, a slide-out autoclave rack and 13liter reservoirs which allow the process to be sustainedfor long periods of time without replenishing the medium.
