Welcome Q.ANT as our esteemed sponsor! Q.ANT Particle Sensors revolutionize algae cultivation through real-time monitoring of photobioreactors! With Q.ANT on board, we are poised for an even more impactful and successful AlgaEurope 2023!
When cultivating algae, population vitality is crucial. However, existing monitoring procedures of bioreactors typically only track the optical density of algae cultures, which provides limited information about the viability of individual algae cells or contaminations in the bioreactor.
Q.ANT Particle Sensors enable the real-time detection and analysis of size, velocity and position of particle sizes ranging from 2 to 700 microns in liquids or gases such as powders, dispersions or aerosols. When used in a bioreactor, the sensors allow the detection and analysis of single algae cells, enabling the instant evaluation of growth phases and key cellular attributes like size, cell debris, agglomeration factor or contamination. This analysis provides real-time insights into the algae culture, enhancing the understanding of their state. Next on the product roadmap is classifying the shape of the measured particles, which could enable the discrimination of different microorganisms, for example to examine bacterial contamination or to serve as an indicator for cell vitality.
