    Abstract: A cell culture matrix for culturing cells in a fixed bed reactor is provided. The cell culture matrix includes a plurality of substrate layers in a stacked arrangement, with each layer being a substrate material with an ordered and regular array of openings passing through the layer, where the openings are separated by the substrate material, which has a physical structure that is substantially regular and uniform and that is for growing cell thereon. The plurality of substrate layers includes a first substrate material and a second substrate material that is different from the first substrate material in at least one physical dimension. The first substrate material and the second substrate material make up separate layers of the plurality of substrate layers.

    Abstract: A bioreactor system for culturing cells is provided having a cell culture vessel with an interior reservoir, and an inlet and outlet connected to the reservoir. The system also includes a cell culture matrix in the reservoir for adhering cells thereto. The cell culture matrix maintains a uniform flow of liquid media through the cell culture matrix, such that the uniform flow satisfies the following expressions: wherein P is greater than or equal to at least one of 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, and 0.95, and wherein N is less than or equal to at least one of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, and 1.0.

    Abstract: A packed-bed bioreactor is provided that includes: a vessel having an interior cavity defined by an outer wall; and a center column disposed within the interior cavity. The center column includes a columnar sidewall defining an inner region within the center column, the columnar sidewall separating the inner region from an outer region within the interior cavity. The bioreactor further includes a cell culture substrate disposed in the outer region of the cavity, the cell culture substrate surrounding the center column; at least one port extending through the vessel for at least one supply and removal of media to or from the interior cavity; and a fountain head element disposed above the center column.

    Abstract: An enclosure for providing a controlled environment includes a central plane extending through a top end of the enclosure and a bottom end of the enclosure and bisecting the enclosure along a width of the enclosure, an inlet at the bottom end of the enclosure having an inlet width, Winlet, an enclosure wall extending from the inlet to the top end of the enclosure, an entry port at the top end of the enclosure, and an outlet between the entry port and the chamber region of the enclosure wall. The enclosure wall comprises a chamber region and a transition region between the inlet and the chamber region. The width of the chamber region, Wchamber, is substantially constant through the chamber region. The width of the enclosure in the transition region decreases from Wchamber to Winlet, and a ratio of Winlet to Wchamber is from 1:2 to 1:5.
