Non-contact online monitoring of DO/pH/biomass (OD) during shaking culture is possible. One flask setup.
The shake flask reader "SFR vario" can hold one flask ranging from 125ml to 2L and allows for non-contact, real-time simultaneous monitoring of the DO, pH, and biomass in the culture medium. It can also calculate the Oxygen Uptake Rate (OUR) from the slope of the oxygen measurement values. It is compatible with standard shaking incubators and can be easily mounted on a shaking platform. It is powered by two large-capacity rechargeable batteries, and the measurement data is wirelessly transmitted to a PC via Bluetooth, eliminating any cumbersome wiring from the shaking incubator. The included SFR vario software can control up to four SFR vario units. Please prepare a PC separately. For more details, please contact us or refer to the catalog.

Company information
In 1942, TaiTec was founded in Kanda Sakumacho, Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo, as a manufacturer and seller of scientific glassware, and since then, it has consistently followed the path of a general-purpose scientific instrument manufacturer. Starting with its first hit product, the Warburg pressure measurement device, it has grown to include a highly popular series of shaking water baths, pioneering unit water baths, aluminum block water baths, and now boasts a lineup of over 200 products. However, no matter how much the products have evolved, the commitment to being "user-oriented" has remained unchanged since its inception. TaiTec has always placed itself alongside users, continuously gathering their feedback to improve its products. As a result of this dedication, it has grown to be recognized as the scientific instrument brand "TAITEC."
