Biofermentation is a fundamental element of pharmaceutical manufacturing, enabling the production of essential biologics, including antibiotics, vaccines, therapeutic proteins and enzymes. Accurate control of pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) is vital for maximizing cell viability, product yield and process reproducibility. These factors directly influence microbial metabolism, protein expression and overall bioprocess efficiency.
This webinar examines the key role of advanced pH and DO sensing technologies in enhancing fermentation for pharmaceutical applications. Emphasis will be placed on sensor accuracy, real-time data integration and the use of feedback control systems to maintain optimal culture conditions throughout the production cycle.
Case studies will demonstrate how improved sensor performance can lower batch failures, enhance scalability and support compliance with regulatory standards such as cGMP and FDA guidelines. Attendees will gain practical insights into how modern sensor systems — integrated with data analytics and process automation — can significantly enhance the performance and reliability of biofermentation in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Join the featured speakers to:
- Explore practical approaches to implementing pH and DO monitoring in pharmaceutical fermentation
- Gain insights from real-world case studies on minimizing batch failure and improving yield
- Learn how experts align bioprocess control with regulatory expectations and manufacturing goals
Register to learn how advanced pH and DO control can optimize biofermentation processes, improve product yield and support regulatory compliance in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
