has bioreactor scale has operational mode material entity bioreactor A device or system that is a material entity designed to support the run of a biological and biochemical process by controlling regulated environmental and cultivation conditions, such as temperature, agitation or nutrient injection at different scales, including lab-scale, pilot plant, and industrial-scale systems. bioreactor system fermenter OBI:0001046 PREFER:0000014 While this term is equivalent to OBI:0001046, PREFER has specific modelling that makes it more difficult to maintain if used directly. A decision was hence made to create this new term in PREFER and map it to OBI:0001046 instead. precision_fermentation operation mode control variable bioreactor scale
