Based on research activities at the University of Abersytwyth and the centre for Alternative Technology (Machynlleth, UK) Aber Instruments was founded in 1988. The company invented and patented a unique method for measuring live biomass based on Radio-Frequency Impedance. Within 3 years the first systems were sold to major biopharma and brewing companies and twenty years later, Aber instruments has become the global leader in on-line biomass measurement.
To date, Aber has supplied over 1000 systems world-wide for the on-line measurement of viable biomass. The Biomass Monitor is used research, process development and manufacturing by the world's leading pharmaceutical companies such as Genetech, Novartis, Novo, Biogen Idec,,GlaxoSmithkline, Centocor, Sandoz, Eli Lilly and Genzyme. Many of the systems are now used in cGMP manufacturing processes with some customers using over 50 instruments.
The Yeast Monitor is now established as the standard for on-line yeast concentration measurement in large breweries and international companies such as AB Inbev, SAB Miller, Coors, Diageo, Heineken, Suntory, Kirin, Asia-Pacific and San Miguel have benefited from using the instrument. The same technology is also being used in Biofuel plants and in some cases the instruments can be used on yeast on second generation ligno- cellulosic waste.
