Important knowledge can be won on the one's hand by the cultivation of animal or plant cells in the medicine and research, on the other hand can be produced the diagnostic, therapeutic or plant products. The cell cultivation can be used e. g. , in the following areas:
A good supply of the cells with nutrients, a constant temperature distribution and an optimum aeration of the cells within the cell cultivation are important criteria for an optimal growth of the cells. MDX bioreactors and fermentors provide optimum, accurate and reproducible cultivation and growth possibilities for all cell types, whether shear stress-sensitive cell types with special needs, or insensitive cells. Cell cultivation places special demands on the sterility within the work with the cells. Medorex sample taker makes possible the sterile sampling from the bioreactor within the cell cultivation, that is ensured by sterile filter with 0.2 μ. By the use of Duran glass, the fermentors are resistant to acids and bases and allow insight at any time in the cultivation process. This simplifies the implementation of controlled cell cultivation. The lid of the bioreactor is made of high performance plastic PEEK material and contains no metal particles. This protects the sensitive cells and the cells are not damaged by the free metal molecules.
