The present invention provides a feedback controlled bioculture platform
for use as a precision cell biology research tool and for clinical cell
growth and maintenance applications. The system provides individual
closed-loop flowpath cartridges, with integrated, aseptic sampling and
routing to collection vials or analysis systems. The system can operate
in a standard laboratory or other incubator for provision of requisite
gas and thermal environment. System cartridges are modular and can be
operated independently or under a unified system controlling
architecture, and provide for scale-up production of cell and cell
products for research and clinical applications. Multiple replicates of
the flowpath cartridges allow for individual, yet replicate cell culture
growth and multiples of the experiment models that can be varied
according to the experiment design, or modulated to desired cell
development of cell culture end-points. The integral flowpath cartridge
aseptic sampling system provides for dynamic analysis of metabolic
products or representative cells from the culture.
