Summary A transformed root culture of Cichorium intybus L. cv. Lucknow Local grown in different configurations of bioreactors was examined. The roots grown in an acoustic mist bioreactor showed the best performance in terms of increased specific growth rate (0.072d−1) and esculin content (18.5gl−1), the latter of which was comparable to that of shake flask data. C. intybus hairy root cultures grown in an acoustic mist bioreactor produced nearly twice as much esculin as compared to roots grown in bubble column and nutrient sprinkle bioreactors. Studies relating to on-line estimation of conductivity and osmolarity to predict the growth of hairy root cultures are also discussed. The results demonstrate the efficacy and the advantages of an acoustic mist bioreactor for the cultivation of hairy root cultures, especially with reference to C. intybus hairy roots.  相似文献

Summary Hairy root cultures of Artemisia annua L. were cultivated in three different mist bioreactors, each fitted with three stainless steel meshes. The growth rates in the three 2.3-L mist bioreactors differed. After 25 d, the growth index (final dry weight/initial dry weight) of the roots was 42 in a nutrient mist bioreactor, 61 in an inner-loop nutrient mist bioreactor, and 68 in a modified inner-loop nutrient mist bioreactor. Under a misting cycle of 3/30 (ON 3 min/OFF 30 min) for 25 d, dry weight reached 13.6 g/L of medium in the modified inner-loop nutrient mist bioreactor in which nutrient could be supplied without dilution of mist by air flow.  相似文献

Summary We report the first use of nutrient mist bioreactor (NMB) technology to culture animal cells. The nutrient mist approximated the amebocyte stem tissue’s natural environment, which is a thin layer of fluid in the gill leaflets of the horseshoe crabLimulus polyphemus. NMB culture was tried in an attempt to increase production of amebocytes, which are the source of theLimulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL), the basis for a sensitive and commercially valuable endotoxin assay. Amebocyte growth in the nutrient mist bioreactor is comparable to growth in liquid medium. However, the current design of the bioreactor presents problems for primary cultures such as ours where a pyrogen-free environment is necessary and fungal decontamination is difficult.  相似文献

Regeneration of plants using nutrient mist culture   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Summary A nutrient mist was used forin vitro culture of plant tissue in a novel bioreactor, wherein the tissues were grown on a biologically inert screen within a sterile chamber which allows excess media to drain away from the tissue. Plants tested includedDaucus, Lycopersicon, Ficus, Cinchona, andBrassica. The latter 4 genera were fully regenerated within the bioreactor. Tissue inocula included callus, anthers, and shoot meristems. All plants grew at least as well in nutrient mists as in agar and always produced a greater quantity of shoots of a higher quality and often faster than agar cultures. Cost analysis estimates showed up to a 65% savings in production costs (labor and materials) could be realized using nutrient mist culture. Nutrient mist culture offers significant improvements in the micropropagation of plants.  相似文献

Shoots of Centaurium erythraea Rafn were cultivated in 5 l mist trickling bioreactor for 21 and 28 days increasing their dry weight from 0.54 g to 13.7 g and 18.3 g, respectively. About 6880 shoots from 223 initial shoot-tips in 21-day bioreactor producing cycle were produced. The shoots could be successfully rooted and transferred to soil. Secoiridoid accumulation (expressed as a sum of gentiopicroside, sweroside and swertiamarin) in shoots after 21 days of culture reached about 303 mg l−1.  相似文献

The present study reports on the kinetics of nutrient utilization during in vitro flowering of Spathiphyllum in air-lift bioreactor cultures. Levels of electrical conductivity (EC), anions and cations, pH, ethylene, sugar content and photosynthetic enzymes were determined in bioreactor cultures of both flowering (FPs) and non-flowering (NFPs) plantlets over a growth period of 12 weeks. A decrease in ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) activity with a corresponding increase in phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPcase) activity occurred during floral induction of Spathiphyllum in vitro. Sucrose concentration decreased significantly in FPs, while no changes in glucose, fructose and total sugars were observed in both FPs and NFPs up to 8 weeks of culture. There were significant variations in mineral nutrient utilization between FP and NFP cultures. These results provide an insight to the physiological processes involved in inflorescence formation in Spathiphyllum.  相似文献

The effects of surfactants, adecanol LG-294 and silicone A, on anthocyanin accumulation and the growth ofPerilla frutescens cells in suspension cultures were studied. Production of the red pigment was remarkably reduced from about 1.9 g/l to 0.4 g/l by adecanol LG-294 at 0.06 ml/l but not by silicone A up to 0.4 ml/l. Several repeated shake-flask cultures also demonstrated no adverse effects of silicone A on the metabolite accumulation by the suspended cells. Furthermore, the addition of silicone A to a culture in a stirred bioreactor produced a three-fold higher growth rate and a seven-fold increase in anthocyanin compared with surfactant-free cultures. The improvement was due to the substantial reduction or prevention of foaming and of cell adhesion to the bioreactor wall.  相似文献

High-throughput analyses that are central to microbial systems biology and ecophysiology research benefit from highly homogeneous and physiologically well-defined cell cultures. While attention has focused on the technical variation associated with high-throughput technologies, biological variation introduced as a function of cell cultivation methods has been largely overlooked. This study evaluated the impact of cultivation methods, controlled batch or continuous culture in bioreactors versus shake flasks, on the reproducibility of global proteome measurements in Shewanella oneidensis MR-1. Variability in dissolved oxygen concentration and consumption rate, metabolite profiles, and proteome was greater in shake flask than controlled batch or chemostat cultures. Proteins indicative of suboxic and anaerobic growth (e.g., fumarate reductase and decaheme c-type cytochromes) were more abundant in cells from shake flasks compared to bioreactor cultures, a finding consistent with data demonstrating that “aerobic” flask cultures were O2 deficient due to poor mass transfer kinetics. The work described herein establishes the necessity of controlled cultivation for ensuring highly reproducible and homogenous microbial cultures. By decreasing cell to cell variability, higher quality samples will allow for the interpretive accuracy necessary for drawing conclusions relevant to microbial systems biology research.  相似文献

Summary A mist bioreactor system for the plant tissue cultures was developed. Using this system, the growth of Dianthus caryophyllus multiple shoots was directly measured. Tissue growth in mist bioreactor system was far better than that on agar medium and almost comparable to that in liquid medium. The mass increase (final dry weight/initial dry weight) in the mist culture was 2.85 while 3.28 in the liquid flask culture. Shoots were seriously vitrified in flask culture but these vitrifications could be considerably cured by using the mist culture system.  相似文献

An industrial glucose analyser was partnered to an automated injection system to evaluate glucose in the culture medium of a bioreactor. This sensor has been validated on continuous cultures ofSchizosaccharomyces pombe and continuous and fed-batch cultures ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae. In addition to the advantage of a more accurate process monitoring, the main interest of this sensor deals with the control of the substrate concentration to a prespecified reference signal. Several experiments have been carried out first to validate the sensor, then to control the process evolution.  相似文献

To improve the cell protocol forCymnema sylvestre, we investigated the influence of initial sucrose concentration, inoculum density, and optimal concentrations of auxins (IBA and NAA) in flask cultures, as well as the role of aeration volume in bioreactor cultures. Cell growth was enhanced 9-fold when the medium was supplemented with 3% sucrose versus a sucrose-free environment. Increasing the inoculum density to 60 g (wet weight) L-1, but no further, greatly improved the growth of these cultures. All concentrations of IBA proved inhibitory while supplementation with 5 nig L-1 NAA was associated with significantly higher dry-cell weights. In our bioreactor cultures, a step-wise increase in aeration volume from 0.05 to 0.40 wm was optimal for cell growth. Although biomass (i.e., fresh weight) accumulated in the bioreactor up until Day 20, the dry-cell weights increased 10-fold, but only through Day 15. The internal dynamics of our culture media indicated that sucrose was preferentially utilized and that its concentration steeply decreased at the log phase. In contrast, both glucose and fructose supplies were exhausted only at the beginning of the declining phase. Our findings suggest that a 15-d culture period is optimal for G.sylvestre cell growth in a bioreactor.  相似文献

Summary A nutrient mist bioreactor was modified for culturing transformed roots of Beta vulgaris and Carthamus tinctorius on a nylon support. Culture conditions of misting cycle, inoculum size, batch or continuous operation and sucrose concentration were varied in order to maximize growth over a 1-week period. Root tissue cultured in nutrient mists in a 1.8-1 culture chamber achieved levels of growth equivalent to hairy roots cultured in shake flasks with identical medium. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of nutrient mist culture as applied to hairy roots, thereby providing an alternative means for successful culture of these tissues. Correspondence to: A. A.

Summary In vitro plant cultures tend to get contaminated easily with bacteria and fungi because they are grown for long times in sugar-rich media. Contamination of bioreactors is particularly problematic as larger volumes entail larger losses. To study the movement and develop subsequent control of contaminants in the mist bioreactor, the spore-forming microbes Penicillium chrysogenum and Bacillus subtilis were deliberately inoculated into three possible locations in the reactor: the growth chamber (GC), the medium reservoir (R), or the mist-generating chamber (MG). Compared to inoculation into either R or MG regions, the growth of P. chrysogenum inoculated into the GC required 3 more days (c. 60% more time) to move throughout the rest of the reactor. In contrast, regardless of where B. subtilis was inoculated (GC, R, or MG), it took 7d to contaminate the entire system. The movement of filamentous fungi and bacteria seems to follow the same route of contamination throughout this reactor. Once visibly present in the reactor, neither contaminant was controllable by addition of the biocide, Plant Preservative Mixture (PPM). Both microbes were completely inhibited if PPM was added to the MG at the time of inoculation and then again 2-d post-inoculation of plants. Reactors were fun for 3 wk. Plants remained free of contamination. These results will prove useful in the implementation of large-scale in vitro culture systems.  相似文献

Propagation of potato tubers in a nutrient mist bioreactor   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The newly designed nutrient mist bioreactor provided an environment supporting multiple-layer culture. In vitro tubers of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) were induced and cultured in this bioreactor by using two culture methods. The percentage of the inocula eventually forming tubers in a two-step method was 98% with only 54% being formed in a one-step method. The two-step method improved the efficiency of tuber induction, expedited and synchronized the tuberization. © Rapid Science Ltd. 1998  相似文献

A novel ultrasonic inner-loop bioreactor was used for artemisinin production by adventitious shoots in a multiplate culture of Artemisia annua L. The bioreactor was designed to allow the nutrient mist to uprise along a concentric draught-cylinder until it overflows from the top opening and the side-holes of the central tube downward and out of the annulus, so that the nutrient mist can be fulfilled in the bioreactor within 2 ~ 3 minutes. Under the misting cycles of every 3-minute misting in every 90 minute interval, artemisinin production reached totally 46.9 mg DW/L of culture medium at an airflow rate of 0.5 L/min for 25 d of culture in batches. The product amounted 2.9 and 3.2 folds of those obtained from culturing in solid medium and in shaking flasks respectively.  相似文献

Summary The efficient exchange of gases between roots and their environment is one of the biggest challenges in bioreactor design for transformed root cultures. Gas-phase reactors can alleviate this problem as well as provide a new tool for studying the biological response of roots and other differentiated tissues to changes in the gas phase composition. In our comparison of liquid- and gas-phase reactors, roots grown in liquid (shake flasks or bubble column reactors) are shown to be under hypoxic stress. Roots grown in a gas-phase reactor (nutrient mist), while not hypoxic, produced 50% less biomass. These results suggest that the response of the tissues to gas phase composition are complex and need further study.  相似文献

This review is concerned with the application of hairy roots, i.e. plant roots formed from plant cells after transformation by Agrobacterium rhizogenes for the production of bioactive compounds. Transformed root cultures have been established from numerous species of dicotyledonous plants. The plants, as well as the main products accumulated in hairy root cultures derived from these plants, are listed in this paper. Data are presented on novel compounds, hitherto detected only in transformed roots but not occurring in the corresponding intact plants. The possible use of hairy root cultures for the over-production of secondary metabolites and biotransformation of chemicals is discussed. In order to enhance the productivity of hairy root cultures, various methods have been derived, and optimized procedures are proposed. They include selection of high-producing clones, elicitation, composition of growth media, culture conditions and genetic approach. Hairy roots usually store secondary metabolites in vacuoles inside the cells. Therefore, several methods have been used to increase the amount of products released into the medium. Unfortunately, no general procedure is known that works in all cases, and the excretion behaviour of hairy root cultures varies from one species to another and even within one species from one clone to another. Special attention is given to the cultivation methods and bioreactor systems for hairy root cultures. Hairy roots are cultivated usually in shake flasks; however, shake flask culture is not suitable for the complex optimization and continuous control of the culture conditions. In this paper, we are going to present bioreactors proposed for the cultivation of hairy roots under more or less controlled conditions. Modifications of typical bacterial bioreactors, i.e. stirred tanks, airlift loop reactors and other constructions, are presented. A very special type of bioreactor providing good conditions for loose root mass multiplication without oxygen or substrate limitations, is the mist bioreactor. Nowadays, it is practically impossible to select the one best bioreactor type for hairy root culture.  相似文献

Sources of hematopoietic cells for bone marrow transplantation are limited by the supply of compatible donors, the possibility of viral infection, and autologous (patient) marrow that is depleted from prior chemo- or radiotherapy or has cancerous involvement. Anex vivo system to amplify hematopoietic progenitor cells could increase the number of patients eligible for autologous transplant, allow use of cord blood hematopoietic cells to repopulate an adult, reduce the amount of bone marrow and/or mobilized peripheral blood stem and progenitor cells required for transplantation, and reduce the time to white cell and platelet engraftment. The cloning of hematopoietic growth factors and the identification of appropriate conditions has enabled the development of successfulex vivo hematopoietic cell cultures. Purification systems based on the CD34 marker (which is expressed by the most primitive hematopoietic cells) have proven an essential tool for research and clinical applications. Present methods for hematopoietic cultures (HC) on stromal (i.e. accessory cells that support hematopoiesis) layers in flasks lack a well-controlled growth environment. Several bioreactor configurations have been investigated, and a first generation of reactors and cultures has reached the clinical trial stage. Our research suggests that perfusion conditions improve substantially the performance of hematopoietic reactors. We have designed and tested a perfusion bioreactor system which is suitable for the culture of non-adherent cells (without stromal cells) and readily scaleable for clinical therapies. Eliminating the stromal layer eliminates the need for a stromal cell donor, reduces culture time, and simplifies the culture system. In addition, we have compared the expansion characteristics of both mononuclear and CD34+ cells, since the latter are frequently assumed to give a superior performance for likely transplantation therapies.Abbreviations BFU0-E burst forming unit-erythroid - BM bone marrow - CB cord blood - CFU-C colony forming unit-culture - CFU-E colony forming unit-erythroid - CFU-F colony forming unit-fibroblast - CFU-GEMM colony forming unit-granulocyte, erythroid, macrophage, megakaryocyte - CFU-GM colony forming unit-granulocyte, macrophage - CFU-Mix colony forming unit-mixed (also known as CFU-GEMM) - CML chronic myeloid leukemia - CSF colony stimulating factor - DMSO dimethyl sulfoxide - ECM extracellular matrix - EPO erythropoietin - FL fetal liver - HC hematopoietic culture - LTBMC long-term bone marrow culture - LTC-IC long-term culture initiating cell - LTHC long-term hematopoietic culture - MNC mononuclear cells - PB peripheral blood  相似文献

Complementary DNA (cDNA) encoding the new versatile peroxidase from the ligninolytic basidiomycete Pleurotus eryngii has been expressed in the ascomycete Emericella nidulans. In recombinant E. nidulans cultures, the pH reached values as high as 8.3, correlating with a sharp decrease in peroxidase activity. Peroxidase was rapidly inactivated at alkaline pH, but was comparatively stable at acidic pH. The peroxidase inactivation in alkaline buffer could be reversed by adding Ca2+ and lowering the pH. However, reactivation did not result after incubating the enzyme in non-buffered E. nidulans cultures that reached pH 7.5. To optimize recombinant peroxidase production, the effect of controlling the pH in E. nidulans bioreactor cultures was studied. An extended growth period, and a significant increase in the recombinant peroxidase level (5.3-fold higher activity than in the bioreactor without pH control) was obtained when the pH was maintained at 6.8, showing that culture pH is an important parameter for recombinant peroxidase production.  相似文献
