FUTURA Probe Tester
The ABER Instruments Probe Tester has been specially designed to carry out checks on the integrity of ABER FUTURA 12mm probe and 25mm probe, which includes the new FUTURA pico probe. The Probe Tester will automatically run through a sequence of tests checking a probe for internal corrosion and leakage between the electrodes. An additional test cable allows the user to check the continuity between each electrode and the Head Amplifier socket. The complete test procedure checks the health of a probe and its ability to perform correctly. The Probe Tester has an LCD display that allows the user to quantify and track the changes of a probe condition.
Signal Simulators
The ABER signal simulator, as the name suggests, simulates a capacitance and conductivity measurement, and is used to perform a functional test on the FUTURA.
Emma’s take on this product
Accuracy: ABER’s FUTURA is designed to give an accurate reading of viable biomass using capacitance. Their technology provides the ability for real-time accurate measurement and control of biomass concentration from lab scale all the way up to GMP manufacturing.
Versatility: ABER probes can be used for many applications in the biopharma and biotech spheres, including cell culture, microcarriers, and packed beds as well as microbial, yeast, and mycelial applications. Their plug and play design ensures seamless integration with your pre-existing process equipment.
Did you know?
A number of cGMP bioprocessing facilities have advanced to using capacitance as a direct measurement of cell health, and is their new ‘gold standard’ for process control.
