A bioreactor is a device used to produce penicillin G, an antibiotic useful in treating infections caused by certain strains of bacteria. Bioreactors typically consist of mixing tanks and vessels with pumps, aerators, agitators, controllers, and sensors for maintaining the correct conditions for penicillin G production. The bioreactor is designed to provide the necessary oxygen levels and carbon dioxide for fermentation and also to maintain optimum temperature, pH, and nutrient levels in order to promote maximum growth of the producing organisms.
