Plotting alt media concentration

Hi!

Our group mainly work with pioreactor in morbidostat mode. After export data, we usually calculate the drug concentration in vial over the experiment time, plotting as this:

Drug concentration in vial is calculated taking into account the dilution events with media or alternative media, the initial drug concentration in the vial (C_vial_initial) the volume of the vial (V), the volume of the addition (ΔV) and the drug concentration in the reservoir (C_reservoir) as follows:

Would be possible to implement it in following releases?

This is possible, up to a linear transformation. In the configuration, there is a parameter fraction_of_volume_that_is_alternative_media set to 0. Switch that to 1, save and return to the Overview page. You’ll see a new chart of the fraction of vial volume that is alt-media. (This is also a computed data export: “Alt. media fraction”). You concentration will be a linear function of this quantity!

This does rely on a correct initial starting alt-media fraction (it’s a configuration parameter in [bioreactor], but for morbidostats, this is usually 0 (the provided default).

Does that help?

Sorry, I didn’t know this feature was already implemented.

I’m going to try it!

Thank you again Cameron!

Feature discovery is a work-in-progress =)
