OptiEnz Sensors

When it comes to continuous monitoring and real-time decisions OptiEnz Sensors provides biosensors that continuously monitor organic chemicals in aqueous solutions, providing concentration data that enables customers running fermentations for bioprocessing applications to increase product yield, ensure process quality, and guarantee process compliance. It's a critical problem - one being faced by biotech firms, biofuel plants, biopharma manufacturing facilities, and beverage producers. Continuous sensors exist for water-based processes for monitoring pressure, temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen. However, no such continuous monitoring devices exist for organic chemicals in water. Today customers take samples, send them to a laboratory for analysis and wait hours, days, or up to a week for results. Without continuous data process operators can’t make real-time process decisions. OptiEnz Sensors has developed breakthrough technology for making real-time decisions – biosensors based on a combination of enzymes and fiber optic technology providing real-time continuous measurement results with the same accuracy as laboratory equipment. OptiEnz measures a broad range of organic chemicals including sugars, alcohols, hydrocarbons and solvents.
