Abstract
A multi-chamber cell culture assembly has provisions for the distribution of nutrient culture medium and gasses throughout each of the chambers. A device is constructed to provide a large surface area for the growth and cultivation of hybridomas, mammalian and insect cells. The device may incorporate macro, micro or nano structures on the growth surfaces to promote or enhance distribution of nutrients, cell product, gasses or growth area. Cell growth, nutrient addition and cell product withdrawal may be carried out automatically.
