Abstract: We design an online automatic sampling device and its control process for fermentation samples, which can collect samples in multiple fermentation tanks in sequence and time division to automatically determine the biochemical parameters of multiple fermentation processes. The device can support direct cell free sampling using filtering membrane or osmotic membrane sampling probes, direct sampling with cells using straight tube, and indirect sampling using Utube witch could simulate manual sampling. We present sampling processes and their software flowcharts of various sampling methods. For direct sampling with cells using straight tube, we also devise multiple bacteria antipollution barriers and provide method of sampling tube chemical sterilization process at the determination interval to prevent external bacteria pollution through sampling tube during longperiod fermentation. Combined with biosensor analysis system, the device can conduct online automatic analysis for biochemical parameters in different fermentation processes.

Key words: automatic sampling, antipollution sampling, biochemical parameters online detection
