A Research Grade Photo Bio Reactor is a high-precision bioreactor specifically designed for laboratory and pilot-scale cultivation of photosynthetic microorganisms such as microalgae, cyanobacteria, and phototrophic bacteria. Unlike conventional fermenters, this reactor is equipped with integrated lighting systems—typically LED panels or fluorescent lamps—that provide controlled and uniform light essential for photosynthesis. These lights are often programmable in terms of intensity, wavelength (e.g., red, blue, white), and photoperiod (light/dark cycles) to mimic natural sunlight or experimental conditions.
These reactors are used extensively in biotechnology research, algal biofuel development, CO₂ capture studies, wastewater treatment research, and the production of high-value compounds like pigments, proteins, and antioxidants. The precise environmental control they offer makes them ideal for strain optimization, metabolic studies, and scale-up experiments. Research grade photo bio reactors are an indispensable tool in modern life sciences, sustainability research, and industrial biotechnology innovation.
