Abstract: This invention is directed to a method for three-dimensional cultivation of proliferating plant cells in a packed bed bioreactor, the bioreactor comprising at least one packed bed chamber configured to confine said proliferating plant cells within it such that the proliferating plant cells become a three-dimensional stationary biomass phase; and At least one container comprising a fluid media, the fluid media is configured to flow through said proliferating plant cells stationary biomass phase, wherein, the flow of the fluid media through the proliferating plant cells stationary biomass phase allows transfer of compounds from the fluid media into the cells and vice versa in low shear forces within the at least one packed bed chamber thereby imitating natural growth environment of the proliferating plant cells within the 3D bioreactor.
Abstract: This invention discloses a three-dimensional (3D) bioreactor for large scale expansion of immune cells and methods of use. The 3D bioreactor comprising at least one packed bed chamber comprising at least one porous scaffold; at least one porous scaffold coated with one or more extra cellular matrix protein (ECM); at least one container comprising a fluid media, the fluid media is configured to flow through said packed bed chamber with at least one porous coated scaffold; and at least one population of immune cells suspended in the fluid media, wherein, the at least one porous scaffold coated with said ECM is creates a stationary niche having low shear forces that imitate the natural growth environment of the immune cells and allows expansion of the immune cells population that flow through the coated porous scaffold in large scale.
