10.1.4 SAMPLE NOW
If a sample is removed from the culture vessel by hand, this can be
signalled to the bioreactor by pressing
SAMPLE NOW.
This logs
the sampling, and is visible in the log files for the batch. For details,
see the “USB Data Export and Import from a USB Stick” section.
If the bioreactor is connected with the bioprocess platform software
eve
®
, an
offline sample
is automatically created there.
For details on the procedure for process-suitable sampling, see the
main chapter “Cultivation”, chapter “Sampling”.
The
SAMPLE NOW
button only becomes functional after pressing
START BATCH
. This means that it can only be used during a
batch.
SAMPLE NOW
generates consecutive numbers for all samples
and logs them with the batch time since inoculation as the time
stamp. If sampling takes place before inoculation, the current time
is logged instead of the batch time since inoculation.
