Abstract

See full text

The invention concerns a facility for coupling a bioreactor for culturing bio-organisms, in dynamic mode, with at least one device for physicochemically analyzing a fluid from this bioreactor or collecting samples of this fluid, the device being equipped with a pump and an injector, the bioreactor being equipped with means for supplying culture medium and xenobiotic(s). The facility is remarkable in that the bioreactor is connected to a closed perfusion loop provided with a pump, fitted with a sampling loop and in that the facility comprises:

    a device for injecting a cleaning product into said sampling loop,two six-way valves, the first valve being connected to the closed perfusion loop, to the sampling loop and to a cleaning loop, the second valve being connected to the cleaning loop and an injection loop that connects the injector to at least one of the devices.
