In Situ Monitoring of Cell Concentration in a Photobioreactor Using Image Analysis: Comparison of Uniform Light Distribution Model and Artificial Neural Networks

Jung, Sang‐Kyu, Lee, Sun Bok·2006·Biotechnology Progress

Abstract

Light intensity is a very important factor that determines the growth of photosynthetic cells. In this study, the light distribution in a photobioreactor was analyzed by processing the images captured with a digital camera. The contour images obtained by filtering the original images clearly showed the effects of the cell concentration and external light intensity on the light distribution. Image‐processing techniques were then applied to predict the cell density in the photobioreactor. To correlate the cell concentration with the light intensity in the photobioreactor, the captured images were processed using two different approaches. The first method involved the use of an average gray value after deriving a simplified model equation that could be related to the cell density. The second method involved the use of local points instead of a representative value. In this case, an artificial neural network model was adopted to infer the cell density from the information of the local points. By using these two methods, it was possible to relate the image data to the cell concentration. Finally, we compared these two methods with regard to their accuracy, easiness, and effectiveness.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • FTIR has been used to measure or infer critical process parameters (CPPs) and critical quality attributes (CQAs) commonly monitored in microalgae reactions, apart from measuring intracellular components.

    “Furthermore, apart from measuring intracellular components of microalgae, FTIR has been used to measure or infer a number of critical process parameters (CPPs) and critical quality attributes (CQAs) that are commonly monitored in microalgae reactions.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
