    Abstract: A cell culture matrix is provided that has a substrate with a first side, a second side opposite the first side, a thickness separating the first side and the second side, and a plurality of openings formed in the substrate and passing through the thickness of the substrate. The plurality of openings allow flow of at least one of cell culture media, cells, or cell products through the thickness of the substrate, and provides a uniform, efficient, and scalable matrix for cell seeding, proliferation, and culturing. The substrate can be formed from a woven polymer mesh material that provides a high surface area to volume ratio for cells and good fluid flow through the matrix. Bioreactor systems incorporating the cell culture matrix and related methods are also provided.

    Abstract: Magnetic particles (100) have a particle size (134) of 500 nm or less and include a core (110) and a polymer coating (120) that surrounds and encapsulates the core (110). The core (110) includes a metal, metal alloy, or metal oxide of at least one metal such as B, Mg, Al, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Fe Sm, Yb, Dy, Gd or Er and Nb. The magnetic core (100) is a polycrystalline particle and is a superspin glass magnetic material, having a coercivity greater than zero and a magnetic remenance greater than zero at room temperature. Above room temperature and at low field, the magnetic moment of these superspin glass magnetic materials increases with temperature. An in situ hydrolysis/precipitation method from precursor metal salts is used to form the polymer-encapsulated magnetic particles (100).

    Abstract: A fixed-bed bioreactor system is provided that includes a vessel with a media inlet, a media outlet, and an interior cavity disposed between and in fluid communication with the media inlet and media outlet. The vessel further includes a cell culture substrate disposed in the interior cavity between the media inlet and the media outlet in a packed-bed configuration, the cell culture substrate including a plurality of porous disks in a stacked arrangement. The interior cavity includes a cell culture section and a spacer section, the cell culture substrate defining the cell culture section and the spacer section being disposed between the cell culture section and the media outlet, and each of the plurality of porous disks has a surface configured to culture cells thereon.
