ABSTRACT:
A development tool (2) includes a plurality of measuring tools (71) to (76) and an industrial process simulation device (60). The simulation device (60) simulates a whole industrial scale bioprocess in order to obtain acceptable operating parameters for the industrial scale bioprocess. The measuring tools (71) to (76) enable various significant properties of the biomaterial to be measured and evaluated using only a small test quantity of the biomaterial.
