    摘要: A combined sampling and measuring apparatus for optical density measurements of the growth of microbial cultures in large capacity vessel, said apparatus comprising a cylindrical vertical transparent tube mounted in shunt with a closed circuit tubular system in which circulates a fraction of the microbial culture from the vessel, a piston able to slide in the transparent tube, a toric seal on the piston performing the additional function of cleaning the inner wall of the transparent tube when the piston is moved up and down in the transparent tube, a light source and a photo-cell in diametrical opposition; the piston has a diametrical port from side to side to allow the light beam from the source to get the photo-cell when the piston is between the source and the cell, and the piston is provided with means in order that the axis of the port be maintained parallel to the path of the light rays. The whole is completed by a control block performing a succession of operations including: cleaning of the transparent tube, optical calibration, filling of the tube, and optical density measurement of the culture.
