CPACT carried out a feasibility study with Clairet Scientific
to demonstrate the performance of a new low cost Raman Instrument, the
MarqMetrix AIl-In-One.
Raman, for online monitoring and optimisation of
bio-processes. The experimental work was conducted in collaboration with IBioIC
to monitor the fermentation of sugars to ethanol. It was possible to use the
Raman data with offline HPLC results to build calibration models, which could then be used to
predict chemical composition. This demonstrates that the Raman instrument can monitor
fermentations in real time with rapid results (<1 min). The results from the
study have been used by Clairet to produce an application note, and for
presentations to potential customers including a presentation at the IBioIC
conference).
