Novel ultrafiltration membrane cell incubator
Technical field
The utility model relates to cell culture apparatus field in biomedicine experiment and the bio-pharmaceuticals, is specially a kind of novel ultrafiltration membrane cell incubator.
Background technology
Through vitro culture or be inoculated in macromole biologically active substances such as cultivating the antibody that obtains emiocytosis or generation and polypeptide in the animal body, is an important process of biomedicine experiment and field of biological pharmacy with active somatic cell.And explore new cell culture processes, research and develop new cell culture apparatus is the important subject of biology and pharmaceutical industry with concentration and purity, minimizing required time and the cost that improves target cultivation material always.
Existing cell culture processes is divided into two classes, i.e. culturing in vivo and vitro culture.Culturing in vivo be with cell inoculation in positions such as animal abdominal cavities, utilize the humoral system of animal itself to provide nutrition to target cell.Its advantage is that cell cultivation process is simple to operate, and cost is lower, macromole biologically active substance very high concentrations such as the antibody of emiocytosis or generation and polypeptide, but its significant deficiency is difficult to purifying by obtaining antibody materials, so the now less application of this method.
The cells in vitro cultural method is cultivated cell inoculation for utilizing Tissue Culture Dish, plate and the bottle made with glass or plastics macromolecular material as container in the said vesse that is marked with nutrient solution.Target substances such as antibody and polypeptide can secreted and produce to cell constantly in the fissiparity process; Process a couple of days cultivation is after necrocytosis, obtain containing the supernatant liquor of target substances such as antibody and polypeptide in the centrifugal mode, obtain the purification of target thing of high density by salt precipitation → dialysis → centrifugal → chromatography purification → concentrate once more → complex steps such as dialysis again.Though cells in vitro is cultivated relatively, the antibody materials concentration that obtains extremely low (being generally 0.1~10 microgram/ml level), need through the purification of target thing that extremely complicated concentrates, steps such as dialysis, centrifugal, chromatography just can obtain high density, whole cultivation, results, purifying and concentration process are time-consuming and with high costs, but its cell cultivation process is simple to operate, macromole biologically active substances such as the antibody of emiocytosis or generation and polypeptide are easy to purifying, so widespread use now.
Hollow fiber culture system is the cell culture apparatus of the mid-90 development.This system principle is divided into cell growth/high density target culture and two interfaces of nutrient solution for utilizing tubular fibre with cell culture environment.Cell is target substance such as fissiparity justacrine antibody and polypeptide in the cell growth interface, the nutritive substance in the inner cell nutrient solution of nutrient solution interface can diffuse to the cell growth interface by the micropore on tubular fibre surface and cell in the cell growth interface and target substances such as antibody and polypeptide because molecular weight can't enter the cell growth interface more greatly.Its result contains target substances such as the antibody of high density and polypeptide for nutrient solution in the cell growth interface.Because two all Packed outlets in interface can and be changed fresh medium for harvested cell and target substance, this system can use continuously.But, in operating process, very easily cause pollution, so can't generally apply for over ten years because this device design is complicated.
As the most cells of vitro culture only under " adherent " condition, promptly cell need be attached to vessel surface can the proper splitting growth and secretion produce biologically active substances such as antibody and polypeptide.Therefore, require to be used to produce the plastics polymer surface possess hydrophilic property of Tissue Culture Dish, plate and bottle.And the conventional plastics polymer surface of producing is a hydrophobic property, can't be directly used in the making cell culture container.In China, because the backwardness of macromolecule material surface modification technical study, treatment facility exploitation, the exploitation of cell culture container and device product and production are in space state substantially, the complete dependence on import of product, or adopt the non-once Glass Containers that falls behind.Though the non-once Glass Containers is cheap, because the defective of its cell attachment poor performance, washing difficulty and easy crossed contamination is eliminated abroad already.
Because be subjected to the restriction of gordian technique bottleneck, in decades, cell culture apparatus is the single conventional plastic container of functions of use always.Cultivate finishing the back target, to cultivate material (as monoclonal antibody and polypeptide) concentration extremely low, and follow-uply concentrate, purification step is very complicated, time-consuming and with high costs.Therefore, explore new cell culture processes, research and develop new cell culture apparatus and cultivate concentration, output and the purity of material to improve target, reducing results, the purification of cell cultures and succeeding target thereof cultivation material and concentrating required time and cost is the important subject of biology and pharmaceutical industry always.
