  • Patent number: 9982225
    Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically controlling conditions of a process are disclosed. In one example, a controller is programmed with a sequence of steps and parameters required to carry out a bioreactor process. A sensor system interacts with the bioreactor to receive information related to a condition of the bioreactor and/or receive a sample from the bioreactor, which it analyzes. The sensor system sends data signals related to the information and/or the sample to a controller, which determines a control signal based on the received information. The controller sends the control signal to the sensor system which, based on the control signal, performs an action that affects a condition of the bioreactor or affects the sensor system itself.

  • Publication number: 20170215601
    Abstract: A crib liner is provided. The crib liner may include a plurality of panels formed of a rigid material. The plurality of panels may include a first side panel, a second side panel, a first end panel and a second end panel. The plurality of side panels may be secured together to form a rectangular shape sized to fit within a crib such that the panels are adjacent to the crib's slats. A plurality of slots, holes or openings may be formed through the panels having a width smaller than a distance between each of the slats of the crib.

  • Publication number: 20160333303
    Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically controlling conditions of a process are disclosed. In one example, a controller is programmed with a sequence of steps and parameters required to carry out a bioreactor process. The controller receives information related to a condition of the process over a first communication network, determines a control signal based on the received information and the programmed process, and sends the control signal over a second communication network to a benchtop utility tower. In one example, the utility tower can include transmitters for temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen that send information related to a condition of the process to the controller over the first communication network, and an agitation system, a gas control system, a temperature control system and a pump control system that perform a control action based on the control signal affecting the process condition.
