Nova Biomedical BioProfile FLEX2 Automated Cell Culture Analyzer with OSM48 Osmometer and Cell Viability Modules

The Nova Biomedical BioProfile FLEX2 Automated Cell Culture Analyzer offers an integrated platform for automated cell culture monitoring critical in biotechnology and molecular diagnostics. This benchtop analyzer incorporates multiple modules including:

• Chemistry Module: Measures 11 analytes (Glucose, Lactate, Glutamine, Glutamate, Ammonium, Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺) using maintenance-free sensor card technology with analysis in 120 seconds from 135 µL sample volume.
• Gas Module: Simultaneous measurement of pH, PCO₂, and PO₂ within 120 seconds from 275 µL samples for real-time biochemical environment assessment.
• OSM48 Osmometer Module: High-throughput osmolality measurement completed in 240 seconds from 140 µL sample volume, aiding process control in bioprocessing and media optimization.
• Cell Density and Viability Module: Measures cell diameter range 4–70 μm and densities from 100,000 to 80,000,000 cells/mL, essential for cell health monitoring in biomanufacturing and upstream process development.

The FLEX2 supports automated sampling from 96-well plates, syringes, and a 24-position external sample tray, facilitating walk-away throughput of up to 24 samples. Its cartridge-based reagent management system minimizes manual calibration and maintenance, improving efficiency for cell culture process monitoring, upstream bioprocess troubleshooting, and quality control in biopharmaceutical pipelines.

Key technical specifications include:

• Analyzer dimensions: 43 cm (W) x 64 cm (D) x 61 cm (H)
• Weight: 42.6 kg (94 lb)
• Collective analysis time with all modules active: 270 seconds with 275 µL sample volume
• Sensor cards designed for low-maintenance operation, critical in high-throughput biotechnology labs

This analyzer is widely used in cell culture process optimization, synthetic biology research, and molecular cloning workflows, providing comprehensive metabolic and cellular phenotype data in near real-time to improve process consistency and control. It is especially valuable for monitoring nutrient consumption, metabolite production, cell viability, and osmolality during scale-up studies and bioreactor sample analysis.

Ideal for researchers and biotech professionals specializing in live-cell analysis, bioprocess development, molecular diagnostics, and biomanufacturing, the BioProfile FLEX2 enhances laboratory throughput while maintaining precise control over cell culture environments.
