Abstract
<PICT:1037759/C6-C7/1> Apparatus for the prolonged or continuous cultivation of micro-organisms includes a closed outer envelope 10 and an inner envelope 12 formed of an elongated semi-permeable tubular membrane. If the micro-organisms and a suitable carrier liquid are contained in the inner envelope, then culture medium in the outer envelope dialyses through the membrane to the carrier liquid in the inner envelope 12 and waste products from the micro-organisms are dialysed through the membrane into the culture medium. Toxins produced by the micro-organisms do not dialyse through the membrane and are periodically or continuously drawn off with the micro-organisms and separated from them in known manner. The culture of micro-organisms may be injected into the carrier liquid through a hypodermic syringe. The outer envelope may be fabricated in polyethylene, polyvinylchloride and copolymers thereof, polypropylene, tetrafluoroethylene or tetrafluorochloroethylene. Sheets of polyethylene and polypropylene 0.002 inch thick will transmit oxygen and are therefore suitable for the cultivation of aerobic micro-organisms. Sheets 0.006 inch in thickness (or laminates of thinner sheets), being air impervious, are suitable for anaerobic cultivations. A desired air permeability may be achieved by the use of an air permeable sheet for one side of the envelope and an air impermeable sheet for the other. For the inner envelope 12 there may be employed natural sausage casing from the intestines of hogs, sheep and other animals, synthetic sausage casings made of regenerated cellulose, parchment or collodion. Suitable carrier liquids for the micro-organisms during their cultivation are distilled water, saline solution, sodium citrate solution and culture medium. Dialysable nutrient substances are mentioned. The term micro-organisms includes bacteria (specified), yeast and moulds. Examples are directed to (1) the anaerobic cultivation of Clostridium tetani the aerobic cultivation of Corynebacterium diphtheriae and the aerobic growth and sporulation of Bacillus stearothermophilus. The outer envelope 10 of the apparatus used was 14 inches long, 17 inches high and 2 inches wide.
