Embodiments of the present invention provide an automatic micro algae culturing device and system for self-cleaning, continual automatic algae culturing and irradiant optimizing. The culturing device includes a photosynthesis tubular reactor for micro algae culturing, with transparent cleaning particles to scrape off any unwanted particles or components such as including and not limited to formation of biofilm. The tubular reactor has multiple double-walled glasses. Inner walls of the tubes in the tubular reactor may be coated with superhydrophobic coating to avoid bio film formation, or sticking of any hydro dirt or dust particles. Because the cleaning particles are transparent, they wont block any sunlight for photosynthesis in the tubular reactor.

A modular kit for integration and installation of one or more bioreactors for microalgae cultivation includes: —at least one bioreactor for microalgae cultivation, in the form of a vertically arranged transparent tubular column; —a supporting structure adapted to integrate and support the base of the at least one bioreactor, and also adapted to internally house a first connection to a system for loading and unloading a cultivation vector fluid into/from the at least one bioreactor, and a second connection to a system for supplying CO2-supplemented air into the at least one bioreactor; —multiple modules forming respective frames with internal empty spaces and adapted to be connected to one another to house, in the empty spaces, the at least one bioreactor; the multiple modules being also so shaped as to convey filtered light into the at least one bioreactor.

An apparatus for enhancing bacterial sporulation can include a laminar flow chamber including multiple laminar flow tubes that smooth flow of coolant, a coolant input port that is coupled to the laminar flow chamber that supplies the coolant to the laminar flow chamber, a transparent tube section that is coupled to the laminar flow chamber and includes light-emitting diode (“LED”) light modules, the transparent tube section receives the smoothed flow of coolant from the laminar flow chamber, a culture solution tube that traverses through the laminar flow chamber and the transparent tube section, wherein a portion of the culture solution tube that is within the transparent tube section is surrounded by the coolant and is exposed to light from the LED light modules, and a culture solution input port that is coupled to the culture solution tube and supplies a culture solution to the culture solution tube.

A structure for culturing cells includes growth medium regions on a surface of the structure. Each of the growth medium regions includes a growth medium surface configured to receive and promote growth in a cell that is being cultured. The structure includes a non-growth medium. The non-growth medium includes a non-growth medium surface configured to receive the cell that is being cultured.

In some embodiments, the systems and methods of the disclosure can provide high-throughput, programmable, and fully automatized tissue and/or cell culture and analysis platforms. In some embodiments, a culture analysis system may include a culture device that includes a cover configured to be secured to a main body, which may include one or more chambers. The cover may include one or more regions that overlaps with the one or more chambers of the main body when the cover is secured to a main body so that each region corresponds to a chamber of the main body. The cover may also include a fluidic pathway disposed in each region and configured be in fluidic communication with a corresponding chamber. Each fluidic pathway may include a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet disposed in each region. The cover may also include an optical pathway disposed in each region for the corresponding chamber.

An apparatus configured to perform in-situ, real-time, noninvasive monitoring of fermentation processes at a location remote from the fermenter/bioreactor in a laboratory or an industrial environment is described. The apparatus enables monitoring and detection of CO.sub.2 in fermentation-based processes with high precision, continuously and in real time from the exhaust pipe or exhaust bypass of any size or type of fermenter/bioreactor or pipe diameter.

A microbial particle is accurately counted in distinction from a non-microbial particle. A preceding-stage irradiation section 2 irradiates a sample as fluid with ultraviolet light at a preceding stage of a microbial particle counter 1. The ultraviolet light is ultraviolet light having a deep ultraviolet region, the ultraviolet light increasing the fluorescence intensity of a first autofluorescence substance in the microbial particle. The microbial particle counter 1 measures light intensity in a first wavelength range including the fluorescence wavelength of the first autofluorescence substance. In addition, the microbial particle counter 1 measures light intensity in a specific second wavelength range. Further, the microbial particle counter 1 counts the microbial particle in distinction from a non-microbial particle in the fluid based on the measured light intensity in the first wavelength range and the measured light intensity in the specific second wavelength range.

A method for quality evaluation includes emitting measurement light having a wavelength of 300 nm or more and 2,000 nm or less to a cell mass and acquiring a plurality of light intensity information corresponding to each of a plurality of measuring positions in the cell mass, generating a feature amount from a variation of the acquired plurality of light intensity information, and evaluating quality of the cell mass using the generated feature amount as an index.
