Contact Caitlin Conboy, Jennifer Braff.
This is a flexible design for building a chemostat from off-the-shelf parts. The number of chemostat chambers and the culture volume per chamber are adjustable.
Also see Endy:Chemostat for an alternative chemostat chamber design and additional info on running chemostats.
