Title: Magnus Wetterhall and Fluid Coupling for Bioreactor Sampling.

Introduction

Magnus Wetterhall is an inventor based in Uppsala, Sweden, and works at Cytiva Sweden AB. His patent work includes a system for sampling a bioreactor while managing fluid flow and maintaining sterile separation within the sampling network.

Latest Patents

Wetterhall is associated with 1 patent: “Fluid Coupling Network for Sampling a Bioreactor.” The invention describes a computer-implemented method for controlling a fluid coupling network connected to a bioreactor, gas and buffer sources, a waste port, a processing system, and a conduit reservoir.

The method draws fluid from the bioreactor through the network to fill the conduit reservoir, then supplies a sample from the reservoir to the processing system. A barrier unit separates fluid paths to support sterile operation. The method also describes returning residual sample to the bioreactor by directing gas through the separated portion of the network.

Career Highlights

Wetterhall’s listed patent focuses on bioprocess sampling, combining controlled fluid movement, sample delivery, and residual-fluid return in a single network. This approach is designed to support sampling while preserving sterile separation between fluid paths.

Collaborations

Wetterhall’s listed coworkers include Tuomo Frigård and Camilla Estmer Nilsson. The patent’s subject matter reflects work relevant to bioprocessing and fluid-handling systems at Cytiva Sweden AB.

Conclusion

Magnus Wetterhall’s patent describes a controlled, sterile fluid coupling network for collecting and delivering bioreactor samples while returning residual fluid, highlighting his contribution to bioprocess sampling technology.
