The fermentation tank is your money-maker and keeping it running smoothly and efficiently is a major concern. Knowing what is going on inside is crucial for effective control, but analysis with existing HPLC options is time consuming and to some extent operator dependant. There has always been a demand from the industry for a rapid, easy and accurate analytical solution for fermentation control.

BioFoss™  - Fermentation control the easy way

BioFoss™ is a rapid, easy but yet accurate analytical solution based on FTIR spectroscopy. This technology is the ideal choice for fermentation control due to its high sensitivity for low level constituents such as the important infection indicators lactic acid and acetic acid.

In less than 2 minutes it presents accurate results for these acids as well as all other important parameters and the ease of use allows anyone in the plant to operate it.

• Lactic Acid
• Acetic Acid
• Ethanol
• Glucose
• Maltose
• DP3
• DP4+
• Glycerol
• pH

Sample preparation is limited to a paper filtration. No additional consumables or accessories are needed which heavily reduce the cost of operation per sample compared to HPLC methods.
