PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a screening process with a rapid, a high-throughput and imparting a high effect per cost, which is a medicine developing process imitating as possible, a biological circumstance expected to be effected by the medicine. SOLUTION: A microfermentor device that can be used for a wide variety of purposes is described. The microfermentor device includes one or more cell growth chambers (10) having a volume of less than 1 ml. The microfermentor device can be used to grow cells used for the production of useful compounds, (for example, therapeutic proteins, antibodies or small molecule drugs). The microfermentor device can also be used in various high screen compounds, for example, to assess their effects on cell growth and/or a normal or abnormal biological function of a cell and/or their effect on the expression of a protein expressed by the cell.
