Bioreactor
A bioreactor may refer to a device or system meant to grow animal cells or tissues in the context of cell culture. These devices are being developed for use in tissue engineering or biochemical engineering.
Fermenter
Fermenters are well established for the cultivation of microbes ,proteins ,industrial product(acetic acid, alcohol etc.) under monitored ,controlled environmental and operational conditions up to an industrial scale.

Consideration for bioreactor designing• cell size (10-20µm)• more fragile .• grow more slowly than most
bacteria and fungi• toxic metabolites e.g.
ammonium & lactate produced during growthProperties of
animal cell that set constrains on design of animal cell bioreactor :
![Page 5: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
In order to ensure adequate mixing at low stirring speeds, the culture vessels are designed with a round bottom, which distinguishes them from the flat-bottom bacterial bioreactors .
Impeller blades which are fitted at the end of mechanical drive shafts are designed to allow vertical as well as horizontal liquid flow.
Vessel should be made up of glass or stainless steel .

Classification of Bioreactor process for suspension culture
1. In terms of process requirements they are of following types-
(i) Aerobic
(ii) Anaerobic
(iv)immobilized cell
bioreactors
![Page 7: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
2. On the basis of mode of operation, it may be
classified as-
Batch e.g -stirred tank bioreactor
Fed batch. e.g- fluidized bed bioreactor
Continuous -An example of a continuous bioreactor
is the chemostat.
![Page 8: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Characteristics principles of fed-batch and batch
Fed-batch batch
Continuous medium addition.
Addition of selected components
energy source (e.g. glucose, glutamine), amino acids, vitamins, salts, metal trace, growth factors.
Dilution of the by-products, etc.
e.g. toxic lactate, ammonia.
Changing environment for the cells.
lower stability of the product of interest.
Alkali addition
Continuous addition and removal of medium can not be done.
• Addition of complete medium at once .
Removal / Dilution of the by-products can not done .
Constant environment for the cells
higher stability of the product of interest.
Less alkali addition for pH control
![Page 9: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Fed-batch batch
Continuous dilution of the product of
interest lower concentration
Multiple harvests variation
In total larger volume of harvest increase work load of down-stream
Smaller bioreactor (up to 500 or 1000 L)
less available, less ‘convenient’
Technically more complex higher risk for failure higher risk for contamination
accumulation of the product of
interest
Single cell harvest
Smaller/limited harvest
Larger bioreactor (up to 20000 L)
more available, even reusable
Technically less complex

Cell culture dynamics
![Page 11: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Components/ Parameter of
bioreactor1.Agitation Agitation is required
for homogeneous distribution of cells
and nutrient media in the cells.
it can be done by magnetic
stirred ,turbine impeller, marine
impeller. Maximum stirring
rates for suspension – 100-150 rpmMicrocarrier -40
rpm (suspension and anchorage dependent
cells)
![Page 12: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
2. Aeration
Through bubbling air
Silicon tubing-highly gas permeable
( inconvenient to use)
By medium perfusion-medium is continuously taken from culture vessel , passed through oxygenation chamber
(risk of o2 toxicity).
![Page 14: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
3. Baffles-used to prevent vortex
formation.
4. Sparger –used to pass air into
vessel.
e.g.- porous sparger
orifice sparger
nozzle sparger
5. Foam control-produced either by
agitation or by component used in
medium like protein. foaming cause
adhesion of cell to inner surface of vessel. to avoid
foaming antifoams are used . like
pluronic f68,liquid paraffin , oil in some
culture.
![Page 15: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
6.Temperature
Usually set at the same point as the body temp of the host from
which the cell obtained
Cold-blooded vertebrates – 18-
25°C
Mammalian cells – 36-37°C
Temp maintained by use of carefully calibrated and
frequently checked incubators
![Page 16: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
7.pHMost cells in culture grow best at pH 7.4
Common used buffer bicarbonate-
CO2 or HEPESKeep the pH
medium in a range 7-7.4
When using bicarbonate-CO2
buffer, need to regulate the amount of CO2 dissolved in
the medium
Done by using an incubator with CO2
control set to provide an
atmosphere with between 2% and
10% CO2.
![Page 17: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
8.Viscosity
In absence of serum in media ,it is necessary to
increase viscosity of media with the help of
carboxymethyle cellulose.
The viscosity can be determined by using commercial available viscometers, for example, cone and plate viscometers, coaxial
cylinders viscometers, and impeller viscometers.
![Page 18: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
9.Sterilization
Heating –dry heat -7o c for 1 hr
moist heat -121 c for 30 min
Radiation-kill bacteria as well as virus.
X-ray ,UV ray
Chemicals- formaldehyde ,H2O2
, ethylene oxide .
Filtration-syringe filter , depth filter
screen filter.
![Page 19: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
10.Scale up
Scale up means-to increase volume of culture.
Firstly ,it should be done as pilot experiments.
It provide the closer approximation /prediction for the large scale
production about various factor like pH , temp , aeration ,media.
This may save cost ,labour and time.

Air Lift bioreactor
The bioreactor consists of two concentric
cylinders.The inner cylinder being shorter at both ends than the outer, thereby creating an outer and an inner
chamber.
The bottom of the inner chamber carries a sintered steel ring through which 5%
CO2/O2-8% in air is bubbled.
The bubbles rise, carrying the cell
suspension with them. O2/CO2 is vented from
the top, and displacement ensures the return of the cell suspension down the
outer chamber.

Fluidized bed reactors (FBB)Cells are used as biocatalyst in three phase system (solid ,liquid and gas).
Basically particles used in fbb can be of three types-
Inert core in which cell can attached.
Porous particles in which biocatalyst is entrapped.
Cell aggregates or flocs.
Because of the higher density of the
microcarriers they can be perfused slowly
from below, at such a rate that their
sedimentation rate matches the flow rate.
The beads therefore remain in stationary suspension, perfused
by the medium, constantly
replenishing nutrients and collecting the
product into a downstream reservoir.
Gas exchange is external to the reactor, and no
mechanical mixing is required.

Downstream processing of
bioreactorFiltration –surface filtration , depth filtration, cross flow
filtration ,membrane filtration etc.
Centrifugation- difficulty arise due to small
differences in the density of particle and medium .
Ion exchange resins - dextrone , cellulose,
polyamines.
Chromatography- affinity chromatography
,adsorption chromatography.

Recent advance in bioreactor designThe cell seeding of
scaffolds is an important step in establishing a 3D
culture in a macroporous
scaffold.Not only seeding at high cell densities,
but also a homogeneous
distribution of cells within the scaffold
is essential.
As most of the scaffolds have
large, interconnected pores, during
seeding, cells are distributed quite uniformly. During
cultivation, medium flow through a
construct enhances the mass transfer of
substrates, particularly oxygen to immobilized cells
when interconnected cell
free pores are available.
![Page 34: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
![Page 35: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The carriers are arranged in a column either packed (fixed
bed) or fluidized (floating bed). The column is permanently
perfused with a conditioned
medium from a medium
reservoir, mostly in a circulation
loop.
In recent studies, small
well-mixed bioreactors (e.g., shake
flasks, stirred vessels, and
super spinner) have been
suggested for cell
proliferation, in which the cells are grown on
microcarriers .
![Page 36: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Offline measurement of dissolved oxygen and
dissolved CO2 were done by sampling the
chamber using a syringe and analyzing it
using a blood gas analyzer (Radiometer
ABL5).
Cell counts were done by
haemocytometer , and product
assays were done by
appropriate methods such
as ELISA.
![Page 37: Bioreactor](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5871c6e81a28ab55058b837d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
A perfused flow-chamber
bioreactor with a new concept for
aeration has been introduced
recently ,in which tissue-specific
inserts for various types of tissue (e.g., cartilage, skin, and bone) can be applied.

NASA tissue cloning
bioreactor
In bioreactors in which cells or tissues grow for experimental or therapeutic purposes, the design
is significantly different from industrial bioreactors.
Many cells and tissues, especially mammalian ones, must have a surface or
other structural support in order to grow, and agitated environments are
often destructive to these cell types and tissues.
NASA has developed a new type of bioreactor that
artificially grows tissue in cell cultures.
NASA's tissue bioreactor can grow heart tissue, skeletal
tissue, ligaments, cancer tissue for study, and other types of
tissue.
