2D and 3D cell culture containers formed from blends of poly-L-lactide and poly-D-lactide provide growth surfaces for adherent cells and do not require surface treatment or coating to support mammalian cell growth. The cell culture containers are transparent, heat tolerant, and are environmentally degradable and suitable for composting in landfills.

Bioreactors and methods of stimulating continuous growth of hairy root biomass in such bioreactors are provided.

An apparatus for enhancing bacterial sporulation can include a laminar flow chamber including multiple laminar flow tubes that smooth flow of coolant, a coolant input port that is coupled to the laminar flow chamber that supplies the coolant to the laminar flow chamber, a transparent tube section that is coupled to the laminar flow chamber and includes light-emitting diode (“LED”) light modules, the transparent tube section receives the smoothed flow of coolant from the laminar flow chamber, a culture solution tube that traverses through the laminar flow chamber and the transparent tube section, wherein a portion of the culture solution tube that is within the transparent tube section is surrounded by the coolant and is exposed to light from the LED light modules, and a culture solution input port that is coupled to the culture solution tube and supplies a culture solution to the culture solution tube.

The present disclosure relates generally to a tubing apparatus for separating and concentrating stem and stromal cells, also known as regenerative cells, from adipose tissue, more specifically to a defined process of extracting, separating and concentrating clinically useful regenerative cells from adipose tissue using a combination of mechanical disruption and filtration-centrifugation to obtain a highly enriched heterogeneous population of stem stromal cells. The centrifuge tube comprising a threaded top cap with male luer access port to be adapted to female luer of a syringe, a tapered main tubular barrel, a thin disk filter, and a bottom conical cap with luer access port for withdrawal of stem stromal cells via a syringe.

Disclosed herein are various bioreactor devices and systems for growing cellular material, and related methods of growing cellular material. In some cases, a system can include a bioreactor system having one or more wells with at least one fluidic passageway coupled to each well to feed fluids to biological material being developed inside the well. In some cases, a bioreactor system can include a main body comprising the perimeter of the well and the fluidic passageways, a cover that forms the top of the well and provides optical access into the well, and a base that forms the bottom surface of the well. The cover and base can be attached and detached from the main body to seal the well closed and to physically access the contents of the well.
