What is the EnBase OptiSet Plate?In this product, an EnBase gel matrix is implemented into four columns of a standard 24-deepwell plate. From that gel glucose is released enzymatically to mineral salt medium MSM (column 1, 2) or complex medium CM (column 5, 6) during the cultivation. The slow release maintains constant glucose delivery to the medium, which allows growth without oxygen limitation and a constant biomass increase due to the substrate limitation. Column 3 provides space to run cultivations with the customer’s standard medium as control experiment. In Column 4 cultivations are performed in gel-free medium providing better cell growth due to enzymatically controlled substrate supply |
Why use the EnBase OptiSet?The OptiSet gives you the opportunity to choose the optimal medium for your specific expression system. Furthermore you can see the benefit of using EnBaseTM products when directly compared to your standard method by parallel controlled cultivation in the same plate. The set includes mineral salt medium and complex medium to use in combination with the EnBase gel and a complex medium X working without gel. Cultivation with in gel free medium does not result in maximal cell density, but brings the advantage of gel-free plates. The result demonstrates which medium enzyme combination provides best conditions for your growth and protein yield. The most suitable EnBase product format can then be selected in yourh next order. |
