Flownamics® has developed a sampling system, the SEG-FLOW™, that can draw a sample from up to 8 different bioreactors or process streams. It then directs that sample to up to 4 off-line analyzers or fraction collectors (Flow-Fraction). The SEG-FLOW™ allows you to put existing analyzers or fraction collectors On-Line. It is fully automated and is controlled by our Flow-Web™ software. The system is capable of controlling analyzers and collectors through RS-232 or analog inputs and outputs. SEG-FLOW™ uses Flownamics® patent pending “Segmented On-line Sampling™” technology which allows the accurate and reproducible removal of samples as small as 0.5ml which can then be sent over a distance of up to 50 feet.

In conjuction with the SEG-FLOW™ Flownamics®has developed the FISP®, which is a sampling probe capable of withdrawing sterile, cell-free samples from fermenters and bioreactors. FISP® allows direct on-line sample transfer to a variety of analyzers, such as biochemistry and HPLC systems, as well as collection for off-line analysis. FISP® is a small, tube-shaped, sterilizable 316 stainless steel carrier which is surrounded by a tubular, micro-porous membrane. They are available for 12, 19 and 25 mm ports for use in laboratory, pilot or industrial scale vessels. FISP® has been and continues to be widely utilized in the fermentation and cell culture fields since its introduction to the market in 1996.
