Abstract: A cell culture apparatus includes: a supply unit that supplies a culture medium to a culture tank accommodating the culture medium and cells; a discharge unit that discharges the culture medium and the cells from the culture tank; and one or more processors comprising hardware, the one or more processors being configured to determine whether or not cell density in the culture medium in the culture tank has exceeded a preliminarily set predetermined threshold, wherein in response to determining that the cell density has exceeded the predetermined threshold, the one or more processors are configured to cause the discharge unit to discharge a portion of the culture medium and the cells from the culture tank and cause the supply unit to supply a new culture medium to the culture tank to reduce the cell density to the predetermined threshold or less.

Abstract: A cell culture apparatus according to the present invention includes a cell culture bag and a culture tank. The cell culture bag is composed of a bag-shaped film material capable of accommodating cells and a culture medium therein. At least a part of the bag-shaped film material is formed of a porous membrane that selectively allows a substance contained in the culture medium to pass through but does not allow the cells to pass through. The culture tank retains the cell culture bag in an immersed state in a solution.

Abstract: A cell-culturing system includes: a solution-holding means holding a medium; and a solution-supplying means supplying the solution supplied thereto from the solution-holding means to a cell-culturing container. The solution-supplying means may supply a solution to the container via a solution dripping step. The container may be connected to the solution-supplying means at a position that is lower than the solution-supplying means in a direction in which gravity acts; the solution-supplying means may have a space in which the solution supplied thereto from the solution-holding means is made to drip; the system may be provided with a discharging port discharging the solution at a position in a container side surface at a desired height; and the solution may be discharged outside when the height of a top surface of the solution in the container reaches the port as a result of supplying the solution to the container from the solution-supplying means.
