Microsensor in Microbioreactors: Full Bioprocess Characterization in a Novel Capillary-Wave Microbioreactor. BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:bios12070512. [PMID: 35884315 PMCID: PMC9312480 DOI: 10.3390/bios12070512] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 06/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Microbioreactors (MBRs) with a volume below 1 mL are promising alternatives to established cultivation platforms such as shake flasks, lab-scale bioreactors and microtiter plates. Their main advantages are simple automatization and parallelization and the saving of expensive media components and test substances. These advantages are particularly pronounced in small-scale MBRs with a volume below 10 µL. However, most described small-scale MBRs are lacking in process information from integrated sensors due to limited space and sensor technology. Therefore, a novel capillary-wave microbioreactor (cwMBR) with a volume of only 7 µL has the potential to close this gap, as it combines a small volume with integrated sensors for biomass, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO) and glucose concentration. In the cwMBR, pH and DO are measured by established luminescent optical sensors on the bottom of the cwMBR. The novel glucose sensor is based on a modified oxygen sensor, which measures the oxygen uptake of glucose oxidase (GOx) in the presence of glucose up to a concentration of 15 mM. Furthermore, absorbance measurement allows biomass determination. The optical sensors enabled the characterization of an Escherichia coli batch cultivation over 8 h in the cwMBR as proof of concept for further bioprocesses. Hence, the cwMBR with integrated optical sensors has the potential for a wide range of microscale bioprocesses, including cell-based assays, screening applications and process development.

Relationship between delayed luminescence emission and mitochondrial status in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Sci Rep 2022; 12:394. [PMID: 35013471 PMCID: PMC8748773 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-04290-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2021] [Accepted: 12/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Delayed luminescence (DL) is gradually used in various detection of biological systems as a rapid detection technique, however, its biological mechanism was still not clear. In this study, a new model of DL detection system for liquid biological samples is established to investigate the DL emission of Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells cultured in different glucose concentrations. We analyzed the relationship between the DL emission and cell growth, cell vitality, mitochondrial morphology, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), oxygen consumption rate (OCR), as well as mitochondria membrane potential (MMP) in S. cerevisiae cells cultured with 0.01, 0.05, 0.15, 3, 10 and 20 g/L glucose respectively. It was found that the DL emission had strong correlation with mitochondrial morphology, OCR, and MMP. The results suggested that DL is an indicator of mitochondria status under different glucose supply conditions, and may be an effective method to detect mitochondrial metabolism related disorders.
