Virtual Bioreactor Training Tool
Exclusive Bioreactor Training Software for Universities
The Biostat® T is an interactive software training tool and ideally suited to educate students and operators in bioprocess control. It enables users to learn about bioprocess engineering and to practice with menu navigation and control of a bioreactor prior to operating an actual bioreactor.
One Platform. Two Versions.
There is a software version for cell culture processes based on CHO cultivation available and a version for yeast fermentation. As a result, this virtual bioreactor training tool will enable users to receive customized training based on their individual skill levels and relevant applications simply by choosing the appropriate software version.
Top Features
Integrative Learning
Apply recently acquired theoretical knowledge immediately as no hardware except a computer is needed to use the Biostat® T.
Quality in Hands-On Operation
Learn the principles of bioprocess control and bioreactor menu navigation virtually and gain the capability to achieve high quality results when using a bioreactor in real life from the very beginning.
Close to Reality
Perform trainings realistically and benefit from:
- Software interface that is based on the human machine interface of real bioreactors (e.g. for Biostat® T CHO on Biostat STR® 200 L single-use bioreactor)
- Real batch data that are integrated into the Biostat® T
Time and Cost Saving
Perform trainings virtually to mitigate the risk of human error and prevent batch losses when running a real cultivation process. Minimize the amount of laboratory clean-ups and procurements of bioreactor media in addition, to save time and money.
Discover the Biostat® T CHO
The Biostat® T CHO mimics the human-machine interface and functionalities of a Biostat STR® 200 L single-use bioreactor. It is based on actual Chinese hamster ovary cell batch data and enables users to gain insights into the characteristics of a CHO cultivation. Users have to utilize the broad variety of software features to determine the optimal parameters for cell growth and antibody yield.

Features of Biostat® T Yeast
The Biostat® T Yeast will feature the cultivation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in a 20 L stainless steel bioreactor. This version of Biostat® T will perfectly allow beginners to familiarize with the basics of bioprocess control and menu navigation of bioreactors by offering:
Guided training scenarios to learn about the basics of batch, fed-batch and kLa-value experiments.
Free training scenarios for batch, fed-batch and kLa-value experiments.
Practical user interface and functions designed according to the human machine interface of a real stainless steel bioreactor.
Time-accelerated operation of the training scenarios for batch and fed-batch experiments.
