  • Abstract
    The current design of perfused bioreactors and bio-incubators tend to be complex and are purpose built for the specific needs of one research underway. Modifications or the ability to change the environment and stimulation parameters are costly in time or involve the complete redesign of the system. The following project describes the development of a modular bio-incubator that allows the control and adjustment of the cell culture environment whilst monitoring the cell behaviour in realtime.
