The SENSOLUX^® stand-alone version is a shaker platform equipped with an optical sensor system for the monitoring of pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) saturation during the cultivation of animal and human cells. Used in combination with the single-use Erlenmeyer Flasks SENSOLUX^® EF, it facilitates the easy, safe and highly informative online measurement of these crucial process parameters in incubation shakers.

SENSOLUX^® EF are equipped with two pre-calibrated sensor patches. In total, nine measurement points for both pH and DO are integrated in the shaker tray that has a compact footprint of 420 mm x 420 mm and is compatible with a broad range of standard incubation shakers, including the CERTOMAT^® shaker range from Sartorius Stedim Biotech. The Flasks are delivered sterile, single-packed and ready-to-use. The SENSOLUX^® EF are available in four different sizes: 125 ml, 250 ml, 500 ml and 1000 ml. Special clamps ensure an exact positioning of the flask on the shaker tray and ensure a precise measurement.

The SENSOLUX^® system comes with a dedicated software which enables the monitoring and visualization of the measured parameters in each flask.

This first member of the SENSOLUX^® family is an attractive tool for conclusive results in the early process development phase, e.g. for the advanced clone screening & media optimization.
