  • Publication number: 20150190765
    Abstract: A method for continuously preparing a medium formulation mixes a diluent with a plurality of chemically incompatible concentrate solutions in such a manner that none of the ingredients of the concentrate solutions chemically react in an adverse manner. The method utilizes a static mixing chamber to add the concentrate solutions to the diluent stream sufficiently in advance of one another so that adverse chemical reactions do not occur. The method also adjusts a pH level of the diluent prior to adding any of the concentrate solutions to the diluent.

  • Patent number: 5364784
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for delivering oxygen to a cell culture medium is disclosed. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a transfer chamber placed within the cell culture medium. The transfer chamber is adapted to allow the cell culture medium to come in substantial contact with a liquid chemical that is passing through transfer chamber. The apparatus further includes a vessel placed outside the cell culture medium that serves to contain and continually recharge the liquid chemical. The apparatus further includes a plurality of pumps and tubes for circulating the liquid chemical through the transfer chamber and back to the vessel. When the liquid chemical comes into contact with the cell culture medium, oxygen is transferred from the liquid chemical to the cell culture medium.
