What is Sensor Fouling in Bio-pharmaceutical industry?

Accumulation of unwanted materials present in the fermentation medium, such as proteins, cell debris, precipitates, or microbial growth on the sensor surfaces is called fouling of the sensor. It can interfere with their ability to accurately measure parameters such as pH, Dissolved oxygen, etc.
