Abstract: Tissues or cells of a living body, especially a human body, are automatically and successively cultivated in a nutrient solution filled culture container disposed in a gas-sealed culture box by detecting, within the culture box, a multiplication condition of the tissues or cells and culture conditions which are represented by temperature, humidity and gaseous atmosphere in the culture box and pH value of the nutrient solution, controlling the culture conditions and apparatus for subculture of the tissues or cells within the culture box in accordance with the information detected.

Abstract: An apparatus for automatically cultivating tissues or cells of a living body comprises a main body the inside of which is maintained in a predetermined atmosphere by an atmosphere control means. A container containing the tissues or cells and a nutrient solution is disposed in the main body and cultivated or multiplied tissues or cells in the container divided and fed for subculture into a plurality of empty cultivating containers disposed in the main body by an operating means which performs necessary operations for subculture. The atmosphere control means and the operating means are totally controlled by an apparatus control means.
