    • STBRsim Version 1.1 Now Freely Downloadable

    Last month, In Silico Fermentation released STBRsim version1.0, a freely downloadable MATLAB application for Stirred Tank BioReactor (STBR) simulation using genome-scale metabolic models. STBRsim is a GUI tool that generates dynamic predictions of extracellular variables including biomass, substrate and product concentrations and liquid/gas phase volumes for user-specified reactor conditions and liquid/gas feeding strategies.

    Based on initial user feedback, we have released version 1.1 of STBRsim which offers the following improvements over the initial release:

    • Improved data structures to substantially reduce the size of stored simulation result cases and improve code speed.
    • Fixed coding bug that caused App error when the result list menu value was changed.

    More information about STBRsim and the freely downloadable application are available here.
