Instrumentation for Training in Bioprocess Technology

这笔款项用于购买设备， 加强伍斯特理工学院的本科课程 研究所在细胞培养，发酵，产品 纯化和大规模生产技术。 监视器 以及pH值和溶解氧的控制，气升式发酵罐， 葡萄糖/蔗糖分析仪，培养箱将增加 现有的发酵过程。 色谱监测仪和 控制单元、附加的备选过滤单元，以及 离心机将增强现有的蛋白质纯化 下游加工过程。 混合罐，Gaulin Mill， CEPA离心机和大容量液相色谱柱 将补充大规模过滤和发酵 设备已经在手的一个新的课程在规模扩大。 所有 所要求的设备也将有利于研究项目 是每个高年级本科生的必修课 受赠人正在匹配 来自非联邦来源的奖励。

This award provides funds for the purchase of equipment to enhance the undergraduate curriculum at Worcester Polytechnic Institute in the areas of cell culture, fermentation, product purification and large-scale production technologies. Monitors and controls for pH and dissolved oxygen, air lift fermenters, glucose/sucrose analyzer, and culture incubators will augment the already existing Fermentation course. Chromatography monitor and control units, additional alternative filtration units, and a centrifuge will augment the already existing Protein Purification and Downstream Processing course. Mixing tanks, a Gaulin Mill, a CEPA centrifuge and large volume liquid chromatography columns will complement the large scale filtration and fermentation equipment already on hand for a new course in Scale-Up. All of the requested equipment will also benefit the research projects required of every senior undergraduate. The grantee is matching the award from non-Federal sources.
