## Abstract The clinical use of neural precursor cells (NPCs) for the treatment of neurological diseases, such as Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease, requires overcoming the scarcity of these cells through controlled expansion. The main objective of the present study was to develop a larg
Inoculation and growth conditions for the large-scale expansion of mammalian neural stem cells (NSC) have been determined. We examined suspension culture bioreactors of murine NSC, and concluded that the oxygen level should be kept high (20%), and the osmolarity of the medium should be kept low (bel
It is likely that, in the future, animal cell cultures of a higher cell density and/or cell lines with higher specific oxygen demands will be available. Such developments will lead to the need for improved homogeneity in the bioreactor and a greater supply of nutrients. The accompanying significant
