โœฆ Synopsis


Cell volume density was shown to be a useful growth parameter to monitor both single cell and aggregate suspension cultures. A method is described to quickly and easily measure this parameter using the length of a cell pellet in a conical hematocrit tube. The tubes were prepared by sealing the small end of disposable micropipet tips, and for seven cell lines growth within the range from 0.1 to 5 ml/liter was reproducible with an average -C 5.6% SD. Good agreement was obtained for population doubling times determined from cell volume density, DNA concentration, and, where possible, cell number density.

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

We present a new approach for biomass assessment in cell culture using a disposable microcentrifuge tube. The specially designed tube is fitted with an upper chamber for sample loading and a lower 5 microL capillary for cell collection during centrifugation. The resulting packed cell volume (PCV) ca
