The new ambr 15 fermentation system (photo) is an automated micro-bioreactor system designed to enhance microbial-strain screening with advanced capabilities supporting fed-batch microbial cultures. The new system has been specifically designed to meet the requirements of microbial fermentation. It comprises 24 single-use stirred micro-bioreactors (each with an 8–12-mL working volume) integrated into an automated workstation. The system offers parallel processing and walk-away control of all 24 micro-bioreactors, providing users with consistent results from the early-stage screening platform. — Sartorius Stedim Biotech, Göttingen, Germany
