  • Publication number: 20220154122
    Abstract: A culture system and a culture device each can minimize the burden on workers and can effectively prevent the effect of temperature changes on culture by performing manipulation of a multilayer culture vessel and the culture in sequence in the same space. The culture system comprises a housing with an internal space in which a multilayer culture vessel including a plurality of trays therein is placed, and a manipulator manipulating the multilayer culture vessel while the multilayer culture vessel is kept in a state placed within the internal space. The multilayer culture vessel is communicated with a liquid supply tube such that a fluid material can be introduced into the multilayer culture vessel from an outside of the housing via the liquid supply tube, or that a fluid can be discharged from the multilayer culture vessel to the outside of the housing via the liquid supply tube.
