This article shows the development and testing of a microchip with integrated electrochemical sensors for measurement of pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen and viable biomass concentration under yeast cultivation conditions. Measurements were done both under dynamic batch conditions as well as under prolonged continuous cultivation conditions. The response of the sensors compared well with conventional measurement techniques. The biomass sensor was based on impedance spectroscopy. The results of the biomass sensor matched very well with dry weight measurements and showed a limit of detection of approximately 1 g/L. The dissolved oxygen concentration was monitored amperometrically using an ultra-microelectrode array, which showed an accuracy of approximately 0.2 mg/L and negligible drift. pH was monitored using an ISFET with an accuracy well below 0.1 pH unit. The platinum thin-film temperature resistor followed temperature changes with approximately 0.1 degrees C accuracy. The dimensions of the multi sensor chip are chosen as such that it is compatible with the 96-well plate format.
本文展示了一种集成电化学传感器的微芯片的开发与测试,该微芯片用于在酵母培养条件下测量pH值、温度、溶解氧和活生物质浓度。测量在动态分批条件以及长时间连续培养条件下均有进行。传感器的响应与传统测量技术相比表现良好。生物质传感器基于阻抗谱。生物质传感器的结果与干重测量结果非常匹配,检测限约为1 g/L。使用超微电极阵列通过安培法监测溶解氧浓度,其精度约为0.2 mg/L,漂移可忽略不计。使用离子敏感场效应晶体管监测pH值,精度远低于0.1 pH单位。铂薄膜温度电阻器跟踪温度变化的精度约为0.1摄氏度。多传感器芯片的尺寸设计成与96孔板格式兼容。
