ASEPTIC BIOREACTOR SYSTEM FOR PROCESSING BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS

摘要

A bioreactor system according to one embodiment of the present invention is provided for producing and processing a biological material in an aseptic environment. For example, the system includes at least one culture tube configured to hold a liquid media containing a biological material and at least one flexible bag for promoting growth of the biological material therein. The liquid media and biological material are configured to be transferred from the culture tube to the flexible bag aseptically in an unclassified area. The system also includes at least one flexible harvest bag configured to be in flow communication with the flexible bag, wherein the flexible harvest bag is configured to separate biological material grown in the flexible bag from the liquid media aseptically in an unclassified area.
