Day -1 (May 19 Tue)
 pH sensor: monitor or control pH   dO2 sensor: monitor or control dO2 Condenser: Gas outlet OD probe: monitor cell growth ==> Not used! Replate it with septum Triple: Addition of media, Acid or Base if necessary MeOH sensor: Monitor EtOH (byproduct)  MeOH sensors also detects ethanol! :See reference #6]            4/13/2009 (11:00)  Pour media 4/13/2009 (11:00) pH calibration 4/13/2009 (11:00) Add antifoam 0.5 ml/fermenter 4/13/2009 (11:30) Autoclave bioreactor ==> 3 bioreactors 3 empty bottles/fermenter (no need this time!)
