Gas Endeavour® was used as an automated in-vitro fermentation system in the establishment of a batch fermentation model using human fecal cultures. The duration of in-vitro test lasts over 48 hours and the volume of gas released from the fermentation can be monitored continuously for kinetic data analyses.
