We review the current state of optical methods for sensing oxygen. These have become
powerful alternatives to electrochemical detection and in the process of replacing the Clark …

Continuous monitoring of oxygen concentration is of great importance in many different
areas of research which range from medical applications to food packaging. In the last three …

Re-naturalized quarry lakes are important ecosystems, which support complex communities
of flora and fauna. Microorganisms associated with sediment and water form the lowest …

Shaking bioreactors are the most frequently used reactor system for screening and process
optimization on a small scale. Their success can be attributed to their simple and functional …

This review focuses on the emerging field of miniature bioreactors (MBRs), and examines
the way in which they are used to speed up many areas of bioprocessing. MBRs aim to …

Tissue engineering of sizeable cell-scaffold constructs is limited by gradients in tissue
quality from the periphery toward the center. Because homogenous delivery of oxygen to …

Background An advanced version of a recently reported high-throughput fermentation
system with online measurement, called BioLector, and its validation is presented. The …

Optical PEBBLE (probes encapsulated by biologically localized embedding) nanosensors
have been developed for dissolved oxygen using organically modified silicate (ormosil) …

Microfluidic bioreactors fabricated from highly gas-permeable poly (dimethylsiloxane)(PDMS
) materials have been observed, somewhat unexpectedly, to give rise to heterogeneous …

A microbioreactor with a volume of microliters is fabricated out of poly (dimethylsiloxane)(
PDMS) and glass. Aeration of microbial cultures is through a gas‐permeable PDMS …
