Dear Confocal listserv members,

if you are into fluorescent protein biosensors, I encourage checking out
GE's sensors for bioreactors challenge

*Phase 1 Guidelines*:  You should propose a technology that senses and
reports the biological environment analyte shown below either directly
in a bioreactor or remotely outside of it —for which the analysis of
those activities can be used to improve cell therapy process control.

*Analyte*

       

*Sensitivity Required*

       

*Sampling Frequency*

Glucose

       

0-100mM; 0-18g/L

       

1 measurement per hour

Lactate

       

0-55mM; 0-9 g/L

       

1 measurement per hour

Glutamine

       

0-10mM; 0-1.5g/L

       

1 measurement per hour

Glutamate

       

0-14mM; 0-2g/L

       

1 measurement per hour

Proteins

       

nM-pM

       

12-24 measurements per day

Cell epitopes

       

nM-pM

       

3-6 measurements per day

As i note in my comment to Paul's Pulse blog, 4 small molecules is a
small number. I've previously posted online how to extend the dynamic
range for any analyte that has an affinity series of FP biosensors,
