<p>The process for cultivating animal cells to multiply them and/or obtain wanted parts from the cells entails the cells being located in the extracapillary space in an aqueous culture medium in a capillary membrane module, and the supply of nutrients and the removal of metabolites being effected through the interior of the capillary membranes. A carrier material for the cells is located in the extracapillary space, and the cells preferentially adhere thereto. This keeps the membrane surfaces free, and thus a constant optimal supply to and removal of waste products from the cells is ensured. In a preferred embodiment, the capillary membranes are the weft and the carrier material for the cells is the warp of a woven mat which is, for example, introduced in rolled-up form into a module housing.</p> |
