Operation and Application Examples
The FISP® is inserted into a side or top port of the vessel. it is immersed into the fermentation broth of culture media and sterilized in the vessel. A peristaltic pump (or the vessel's own hydrostatic pressure) withdraws a sample through the tubular membrane and into the probe's stainless steel network of grooves. the sample flows through the network of grooves into a central channel where the cell-free sample can be directed to an on-line analyser, fraction collector or sample container. Fluid flow rate is dependant on the viscosity of the media and will not exceed 2ml/min.
