Practical IoT: monitoring biotech lab conditions with sensors
Founded in the Netherlands, Iribov is an independent service laboratory focused on tissue culture services and analyses of plants with flow cytometry and molecular techniques. The laboratory uses tissue culture to produce half material for breeders, develops protocols for multiplication and produces certified starting material for large-scale production. With locations in the Netherlands, Ghana and Macedonia the lab employs a team of more than 350.
Challenge
Tracking and maintaining controlled laboratory conditions to provide the best quality services for customers.
Using sensors to monitor and optimize lab conditions
The company uses 30MHz temperature humidity sensors to monitor and maintain lab conditions. In the future, Iribov hopes to leverage sensors and the 30MHz platform for remote monitoring of laboratories in Ghana and Macedonia.

Cultivation variables explained: growing degree units
In this blog, we would like to tell you something about growing degree units (GDH / GDD). The reason we added this to our dashboard is that during a lot of conversations our users often ask for this. Degree hour insights are used to pro-actively control cultivation. Growers however indicate that the calculation is time-consuming ...Read more
Autonomous growing is no longer a far-fetched dream
The Autonomous Greenhouse Challenge has come to an end and we made it to the finish line. Our multidisciplinary team of horticultural experts and computer scientists from Delphy and 30MHz grew healthy cherry tomatoes remotely in 6 month’s time. In this period, we were able to develop the system and models needed to control a ...Read more
