Notes:
A quadrupol mass spectrometer QMS c 300 developed and manufactured from the workshops of the Institute of Nuclear Research of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Debrecen, has been cuppled with a 12 l laboratory steril fermenter. The QMS apparatus is provided with 3 different possibilities for sampling. Via a dynamic air input system the discharged air of the fermenter can be analyzed continuously. The static sampling input allows the off-line measurement of gaseous and volatile compounds. Special membran samplers are used for measurements of volatile and gaseous substrates and microbial metabolites in the fermentation broth. The samplers can be adopted in the reactor vessel directly analogous to the pH and pO2-electrodes.
