Zusammenfassung:The present invention comprises novel culture methods and devices in which living cells or subcellular biocatalysts are immobilized in an open chamber defined by two rotating disks. The fluid force of nutrient fluids flowing into the chamber opposes the centripetal force created by rotation of the device to suspend the cells within the chamber and promote cell growth. Use of an open chamber increases the capacity of the device to produce the desired cellular products.
