Abstract
The high population growth rate, massive animal food consumption, fast economic progress, and limited food resources could lead to a food crisis in the future. There is a huge requirement for dietary proteins including cultured meat is being progressed to fulfill the need for meat-derived proteins in the diet. However, production of cultured meat requires monitoring numerous bioprocess parameters. This review presents a comprehensive overview of various widely adopted techniques (optical, spectroscopic, electrochemical, capacitive, FETs, resistive, microscopy, and ultrasound) for monitoring physical, chemical, and biological parameters that can improve the bioprocess control in cultured meat. The methods, operating principle, merits/demerits, and the main open challenges are reviewed with the aim to support the readers in advancing knowledge on novel sensing systems for cultured meat applications.

[PMID: 36388092 PMCID: PMC9644111 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2022.1053233] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2022] [Accepted: 10/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The temperature dependence of the dielectric properties of blood is important for studying the biological effects of electromagnetic fields, electromagnetic protection, disease diagnosis, and treatment. However, owing to the limitations of measurement methods, there are still some uncertainties regarding the temperature characteristics of the dielectric properties of blood at low and medium frequencies. In this study, we designed a composite impedance measurement box with high heat transfer efficiency that allowed for a four/two-electrode measurement method. Four-electrode measurements were carried out at 10 Hz-1 MHz to overcome the influence of electrode polarization, and two-electrode measurements were carried out at 100 Hz-100 MHz to avoid the influence of distribution parameters, and the data was integrated to achieve dielectric measurements at 10 Hz-100 MHz. At the same time, the temperature of fresh blood from rabbits was controlled at 17-39°C in combination with a temperature-controlled water sink. The results showed that the temperature coefficient for the real part of the resistivity of blood remained constant from 10 Hz to 100 kHz (-2.42%/°C) and then gradually decreased to -0.26%/°C. The temperature coefficient of the imaginary part was positive and bimodal from 6.31 kHz to 100 MHz, with peaks of 5.22%/°C and 4.14%/°C at 126 kHz and 39.8 MHz, respectively. Finally, a third-order function model was developed to describe the dielectric spectra at these temperatures, in which the resistivity parameter in each dispersion zone decreased linearly with temperature and each characteristic frequency increased linearly with temperature. The model could estimate the dielectric properties at any frequency and temperature in this range, and the maximum error was less than 1.39%, thus laying the foundation for subsequent studies.

Two-methods approach to follow up biomass by impedance spectroscopy: Bacillus thuringiensis fermentations as a study model. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2022; 106:1097-1112. [PMID: 35037996 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-022-11768-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2021] [Revised: 12/06/2021] [Accepted: 01/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Impedance spectroscopy is used for the characterization of electrochemical systems as well as for the monitoring of bioprocesses. However, the data obtained using this technique allow multiple interpretations, depending on the methodology implemented. Hence, it is necessary to establish a robust methodology to reliably follow-up biomass in fermentations. In the present work, two methodological approaches, mainly used for the characterization of electrochemical systems, were employed to characterize and determine a frequency that allows the monitoring of biomass in Bacillus thuringiensis fermentations by impedance spectroscopy. The first approach, based on a conventional analysis, revealed a single distribution with a characteristic frequency of around 2 kHz. In contrast, the second approach, based on the distribution of relaxation times, gave three distributions (A, B, and C). The C distribution, found near 9 kHz, was more related to the microbial biomass than the distribution at 2 kHz using the equivalent circuits. The time course of the B. thuringiensis fermentation was followed; bacilli, spores, glucose, and acid and base consumption for pH were determined out of line; and capacitance at 9 kHz was monitored. The correlation between the time course data and the capacitance profile indicated that the monitoring of B. thuringiensis at 9 kHz mainly corresponds to extracellular activity and, in a second instance, to the cellular concentration. These results show that it is necessary to establish a robust and reliable methodology to monitor fermentation processes by impedance spectroscopy, and the distribution of relaxation times was more appropriate. KEY POINTS: • Application of impedance spectroscopy for bioprocess monitoring • Low-frequency monitoring of biomass in fermentations • Analysis of impedance data by two methodological approaches.

On-line monitoring of industrial interest Bacillus fermentations, using impedance spectroscopy. J Biotechnol 2022; 343:52-61. [PMID: 34826536 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiotec.2021.11.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2021] [Revised: 10/12/2021] [Accepted: 11/13/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Impedance spectroscopy is a technique used to characterize electrochemical systems, increasing its applicability as well to monitor cell cultures. During their growth, Bacillus species have different phases which involve the production and consumption of different metabolites, culminating in the cell differentiation process that allows the generation of bacterial spores. In order to use impedance spectroscopy as a tool to monitor industrial interest Bacillus cultures, we conducted batch fermentations of Bacillus species such as B. subtilis, B. amyloliquefaciens, and B. licheniformis coupled with this technique. Each fermentation was characterized by the scanning of 50 frequencies between 0.5 and 5 MHz every 30 min. Pearson's correlation between impedance and phase angle profiles (obtained from each frequency scanned) with the kinetic profiles of each strain allowed the selection of fixed frequencies of 0.5, 1.143, and 1.878 MHz to follow-up of the fermentations of B. subtilis, B. amyloliquefaciens and B. licheniformis, respectively. Dielectric profiles of impedance, phase angle, reactance, and resistance obtained at the fixed frequency showed consistent changes with exponential, transition, and spore release phases.

Cole-Cole modeling of real-time capacitance data for estimation of cell physiological properties in recombinant Escherichia coli cultivation. Biotechnol Bioeng 2021; 119:922-935.

Abstract
Real-time estimation of physiological properties of the cell during recombinant protein production would ensure enhanced process monitoring. In this study, we explored the application of dielectric spectroscopy to track the fed-batch phase of recombinant Escherichia coli cultivation for estimating the physiological properties, viz. cell diameter and viable cell concentration (VCC). The scanning capacitance data from the dielectric spectroscopy were pre-processed using moving average (MA). Later, it was modelled through a nonlinear theoretical Cole-Cole model and further solved using a global evolutionary genetic algorithm (GA). The parameters obtained from the GA were further applied for the estimation of the aforementioned physiological properties. The offline cell diameter and cell viability data were obtained from particle size analyzer and flow cytometry measurements to validate the Cole-Cole model. The offline VCC was calculated from the cell viability % from flow cytometry data and dry cell weight concentration (DCW). The Cole-Cole model predicted the cell diameter and VCC with an error of 1.03% and 7.72%, respectively. The proposed approach can enable the operator to take real-time process decisions in order to achieve desired productivity and product quality. This article is protected by copyright.
