3. General Information
Personal Bioreactor RTS-1 / RTS-1C is a device that can be used as an incubator with optical density measurement in real time.
Temperature control allows using RTS-1 / RTS-1C as an incubator, for example, to cultivate cells. Due to innovative mixing technology
(reverse spinning of the sample around its own axis), it is possible to make OD measurement without probe interference. Developed
software for recording, displaying and data analysis allows working in real time.
Personal Bioreactor RTS-1C is equipped with a cooling unit that allows cooling the sample
s to +4°C and temperature profiling
through software.
The Personal Bioreactor is applicable in:

Microbiology

Molecular biology

Cell biology

Biotechnology

Biochemistry

Systems Biology

Synthetic Biology
Features

Innovative mixing due to reverse spinning of the tube with the sample around its own axis;

Due to innovative mixing technology it is possible to measure optical density and light scattering of the sample in real time without
probe interference, maintaining process sterility;

Changing the parameters such as temperature, revolution per minute and period of spinning in one direction, together with pos-
sibility of creating experiment algorithms (including temperature profiling, mixing intensity profiling, optical density control, etc.)
allows both performance of difficult sequence of algorithms of fermentation process, and achieving consistent and repeatable
results.
Measurement system of the device is not working when the device is stand-alone. User must connect the device to the computer
and turn on the software for the measurement system to work.
Software possibilities:

Remote tracking and control of fermentation process.

Real-time registration of cell growth kinetics or particle suspension aggregation/ disaggregation processes.

User graphs, including 3D graphs.

Pause.

Saving and loading result data.

PDF and Excel spreadsheet reports.

Simultaneous connection of up to 10 units that allows, on one hand, to research the influence of different chemical and physical
factors on fermentation process, and, on the other hand, to research the interdependence of those factors in matrix experiments.

Calibration of the device (hardware version 9 or later).
