Zusammenfassung: | Described is an apparatus for culturing cells or tissue, the apparatus comprising a container comprising a bottom and at least one sidewall, wherein at least a part of the bottom comprises a gas permeable material or is adapted to engage with a gas permeable material and is perforated to allow gaseous exchange; a detachable top adapted to engage with the container to define a chamber, wherein at least a part of the top comprises a gas permeable material or is adapted to engage with a gas permeable material and is perforated to allow gaseous exchange; and a scaffold adapted to receive a substrate for cells to reside upon. The apparatus is configurable between (a) a first mode in which the substrate is not disposed in gaseous communication with a gas permeable material, and (b) a second mode in which the substrate is disposed in gaseous communication with a gas permeable material.
Se describe un aparato para cultivar células o tejidos, el aparato que comprende un contenedor que comprende un fondo y al menos una pared lateral, en donde al menos una parte del fondo comprende un material permeable a los gases o está adaptado para acoplarse con un material permeable a los gases y está perforado para permitir el intercambio gaseoso; una parte superior separable adaptada para acoplarse con el contenedor para definir una cámara, en donde al menos una parte de la parte superior comprende un material permeable a los gases o está adaptada para acoplarse con un material permeable a los gases y está perforada para permitir el intercambio gaseoso; y un andamio adaptado para recibir un sustrato para que las células residan sobre él. El aparato es configurable entre (a) un primer modo en el que el sustrato no está dispuesto en comunicación gaseosa con un material permeable a los gases, y (b) un segundo modo en el que el sustrato está dispuesto en comunicación gaseosa con un material permeable a los gases. |
