Method for Expanding and/or Preserving Cells by Means of Gas Enrichment of the Culture Medium

摘要

A method for expanding and/or preserving cells inside a culture vessel containing a culture medium provides for the renewal of the culture medium by a culture medium stream, at least a portion of which comes from a culture medium volume contained in a gas-enrichment vessel of the culture medium, the enrichment-vessel further containing a gas volume which is separated from the culture medium volume by a free interface, the gas volume being renewed by a gas stream that is introduced into the enrichment vessel directly into the gas volume, the flow of the stream being arranged so as to enable a gas exchange between the culture medium volume and the gas volume at the interface thereof.
