Grow your cultures, get results, and repeat.
Introducing Pioreactor: the affordable bioreactor. It's user-friendly, flexible, and easy to scale.
Grow, monitor, and control your cultures
Pioreactor helps you design and observe your experiments.
-
Real-time optical density measurements
Continuously monitor the density and growth rate of your cultures (yeast, bacteria, and algae)
-
Control temperature
Manually set or automate your bioreactor's temperature to suit your needs
-
Web-based platform
Monitor and control the state of your cultures in Pioreactor’s platform
-
Scale out
Create a cluster of Pioreactors and control them in parallel from the online platform
-
Liquid handling
Add and remove media from your bioreactor using Pioreactor’s pumping system
-
And much more...
Pioreactor has much more to offer: learn about all of Pioreactor's features
Visualize real-time optical density measurements directly from your Pioreactor in our online platform.
Designed for researchers, students, and everyone curious about biology.
Build a cluster of Pioreactors for your cultures.
Horizontally scale your microbiology experiments by connecting together any number of Pioreactors, all controllable from a single interface.
Automate your experiments
Customize and extend your Pioreactor using one of our community-developed plugins. Develop your own plugins and share with others.
Add and remove media from your bioreactor using Pioreactor’s peristaltic pumps. Activate the pumps manually or on triggers. Calibration is streamlined, too!
Turn your Pioreactor into a turbidostat, chemostat, night/day photo-bioreactor or define your own automation code using our Python API.
