Das System weist mindestens eine Bewegungseinrichtung zur Einleitung einer Durchmischungs-Bewegung in den Bioreaktor oder in eine Halterung zur Aufnahme eines Bioreaktors und mindestens einen in oder an dem Bioreaktor anordenbaren Sensor zur Aufnahme mindestens einer physiologischen oder physikalischen Messgröße. Die Mischvorrichtung oder der Bioreaktor weist ferner einen Sensor oder Geber zur Erzeugung einer Synchronisierungs-Messgröße auf.
摘要:
A system and method for generating biological products. In some aspects, the system includes a first substrate having formed therein a plurality of inlet channel extending substantially along a longitudinal direction, and a second substrate having formed therein a plurality of outlet channel corresponding to the plurality of inlet channel and extending substantially along the longitudinal direction, the second substrate configured to releasably engage the first substrate. The system also includes a permeable membrane, arranged between the substrates, forming microfluidic pathways between respective inlet and outlet channels and configured to selectively capture biological source material capable of generating biological products, wherein at least one channel is tapered transversally to control a pressure differential profile regulating perfusion through the permeable membrane.
