Cell culture technology requirements

The combination of three-phase fluidization and cell culture may represent an ideal union of new technology and immediate application because the high-value products of mammalian cell culture require relatively small production scales (on the order of 100 liters rather than 100,000 liters), it is possible to investigate the usefulness of three-phase fluidization in what would otherwise be considered a pilot scale set up without having to build an expensive, large scale unit.
