Batch, Fed-Batch, Continuous Processes
INFORS HT bioreactors are configured for batch and fed-batch processes by default. Optional solutions are also available for continuous, chemostat, and perfusion processes.The Iris bioprocess software supports even complex feed strategies.
The following table shows an overview of the available options with our bioreactors:
