The present invention relates to bioreactor system and method thereof wherein support matrix (2) comprises at last one central shaft and plurality of peripheral shaft being radially surrounds central shaft. Arrays of discs (11) are mounted along the shaft by defining interspatial vicinities between two successive plates. Thus, discs mounted on peripheral shafts are rotated within the interspatial vicinity of discs of central shaft to ensures sufficient mixing and avoid stagnant fluidic zones which is created when discs are mounted closely apart from each other on shafts. Further, plurality of deflector vanes that are axially provided along the length of the central shaft to redirect substantially co-axial direction fluid flow into interior of culture vessel and more specifically towards the central axis. Thus, bioreactor system provides scalable and disposable bioreactor with efficient mixing and homogeneous conditions and thereby supports high density growth and maintenance of cells and other biological material.
摘要:
An apparatus for substantially horizontally oscillating one or more vessels containing a liquid, a solid, or a mixture thereof that operates to thoroughly disrupt and mix solid and liquid substances in vessels, like test tubes. The apparatus provides superior mixing through oscillation of the vessels both horizontal and vertical directions through the use of one or more springs and rotating mechanical components. The apparatus includes a circular rotating ring having a toothed circumference that rotates horizontally, at least one vessel support having a compartment configured to hold the one or more vessel vessels and a spring attached to the housing and in constant contact with each of the one or more vessel supports.

A bioreactor includes a nutrient reservoir, a rotatable culture bed, at least one culture carrier medium, a mist generator and a mist delivery pipe. The nutrient reservoir stores therein a nutrient solution required for the fungus, plant cell, tissue, organ, hairy roots and plantlet. The rotatable culture bed is rotated at a specified speed. The at least one culture medium has thereon the fungus, plant cell, tissue, organ, hairy roots and plantlet and is supported on the rotatable culture bed. The mist generator is used for producing mists of the nutrient solution. The mist delivery pipe delivers therein the mists of the nutrient solution and has a mist-exit port adjusted to a desired level above the culture medium so as to discharge and spray the mists over the fungus, plant cell, tissue, organ, hairy roots and plantlet.
