Culture and Fermentation

The fermentation facility includes "state-of-the-art" computerized New Brunswick 30 litre and 150 liter fermenters, with temperature and pH controls, cell harvesting capacity, and a large scale (up to 1 kg of cells) homogenizer and Dynamill Cell disrupruptor. The centralized facility also boasts a 3 Litre pilot fermenter/chemoststat. In addition the facility includes a novel, recently patented, centrifugal fermentation facility (as a result of a collaboration of the Department of Biology with an Atlanta-based company, Kinetics Biosystems Inc).
