A Simple Approach for Characterizing Oxygen Transfer Rate (OTR) within a BIOne Single-Use Fermentor

Author(s)Distek, Inc

Discover how accurate oxygen transfer rate (OTR) characterization supports microbial fermentation for high-quality plasmid DNA production. This white paper demonstrates the sulfite depletion method for measuring OTR in the Distek BIOne 2L Single-Use Fermentor and explains why it provides a more representative approach than traditional methods for process development and scale-up.
