Abstract: A cell culture vessel includes a vessel body, support columns, and a stabilizer device. The vessel body defines a cell culture chamber enclosed between a bottom wall and a top wall. The support column is within the cell culture chamber and extends between the top wall and the bottom wall. The stabilizer device covers a width and length of the cell culture chamber and has a column engaging structure that is sized to slidingly engage the support column such that the stabilizer device is movable along the support column as a liquid culture medium is received in the cell culture chamber. The support column guides the stabilizer device along a length of the support column as the stabilizer device rises with rising liquid level in the cell culture chamber during a liquid culture medium filling operation.

Abstract: A cell culture system is provided that includes a cell culture vessel having an interior cavity to house a cell culture substrate in a cell culture space, and at least one port for at least one of fluid inlet to the interior cavity and fluid outlet from the interior cavity. The system further includes a piston having a distal end disposed in the cell culture vessel above the cell culture space, the distal end of the piston being sealed with an airtight seal within the interior cavity. The system also includes a driver coupled to the piston to move the piston so as to increase and decrease a distance between the distal end and the cell culture space. The driver can pressurize the interior cavity via actuation of the piston to harvest cells from the cell culture space through the at least one port.

Abstract: A cell culture vessel has a wall and cell culture surface having a plurality of microcavities for culturing cells in three-dimensional conformation, referred to as “spheroids”. The inner surface of the wall and the cell culture surface define a cell culture chamber of the vessel. The wall is attached to the cell culture surface in a way that does not provide flat surfaces on or around the cell culture surface so that the vessel provides an environment suitable for the production of a homogeneous population of three-dimensional cell clusters, or spheroids.
