Fermentation Headspace Analysis with
the Questor IV Process Analyzer
Extrel's Questor
process analyzers have proven valuable to
the fermentation industry in the monitoring of headspace gases
in fermentation reactors. Data obtained provides important information
on metabolic pathways, oxygen uptake, and respiratory quotients
can be used to optimize production. In addition, the mass spectrometers
low detection limits can provide valuable insight into process
by-products such as alcohols, acid and complex aldehydes.

Monitoring of Methanol as a By-Product
of Fermentation Processes
The Questor
has demonstrated the ability to monitor
parts per million concentration levels of methanol (CH3OH)
in fermentation processes. The evolution and detection of
alcohols such as methanol is a key indicator in fermentation
process optimization. Request
