BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, an aerated culture tank equipped with a stirring blade has been used as an apparatus for culturing microorganisms in large quantities, such as in the field of fermentation. Furthermore, attempts have also been made to use an aerated culture tank equipped with a stirring device in the case of culturing large amounts of plant cells and the like. The stirring in this case is mainly performed to prevent cells from settling and to bring them into sufficient contact with nutrients and oxygen necessary for proliferation of cells. When culturing plant cells, etc., unlike the case of culturing microorganisms, their growth is relatively susceptible to the influence of agitation intensity, and if the agitation intensity is too strong, growth often decreases or stops. As a result, it is often difficult to efficiently produce secondary metabolites.

As a culture device that improves the drawbacks of the above-mentioned aerated culture tank, a method has also been proposed in which a rotary cylindrical culture device is used for culturing plant cells and the like. In this type of device, as the volume of the tank increases, the oxygen transfer capacity coefficient decreases, so in order to increase it, it is necessary to significantly increase the rotation speed. However, when culturing plant cells, etc., it is impossible to increase the oxygen transfer capacity coefficient by increasing the rotation speed of the cylindrical culture tank because these cells are susceptible to the shock of stirring. However, it is difficult to efficiently culture plant cells in large quantities using, for example, 100 or more conventional rotating cylindrical culture tanks. For example, the Japanese Society of Fermentation Engineering Abstracts, 1981, p. 247 (1981) states that air is introduced into the liquid surface of a rotating cylindrical culture tank equipped with internal baffles to improve the stirring effect. supply,
A method for culturing plant callus cells while rotating is described. Even with this method, plant cells etc. are easily destroyed by impact, and efficient proliferation cannot be achieved, so the above-mentioned drawbacks have not been improved.

The present inventors have investigated a culture device that can improve the above-mentioned drawbacks of culture devices, particularly rotary cylindrical culture devices, and can efficiently produce plant cells on a large scale. Instead of installing a baffle plate or the like inside the culture tank, a porous hollow body is installed as a supply device for oxygen-containing gas inside the culture medium of a rotating cylindrical culture tank, and oxygen-containing gas is supplied through the porous hollow body. It has been discovered that the above object can be fully achieved by supplying gas, and the present invention has been achieved. By using the culture device of the present invention, plant cells, etc. can be efficiently cultured on an industrial scale, and secondary metabolites can be efficiently produced from these proliferated cells, etc. are doing. Furthermore, in conventionally used aerated agitation tanks, if culture is continued for a long time, a large amount of cells etc. will adhere to the inner wall of the culture tank near the liquid level, interfering with the smooth progress of culture.
Although there was a drawback that recovery of cells etc. after completion of culture was hindered, the culture device of the present invention can overcome these drawbacks. Also,
When the rotary cylindrical culture device of the present invention is used, the growth rate during culturing of plant cells, etc. does not decrease or stop, and the proliferated cells, etc. can smoothly produce secondary metabolites. It has the characteristic of being able to

The rotation speed of the cylindrical culture tank 1 varies depending on the properties of the cells of the plant to be cultured, but is usually 25 times/min or less, preferably in the range of 1 to 20 times/min. The circumferential speed of tank 1 is usually 2 m/min or more, preferably in the range of 4 to 60 m/min. When the rotary cylindrical culture device of the present invention is used, sedimentation and accumulation of cells, etc. can be prevented by setting the rotational speed and circumferential speed as described above even in the case of a large industrial scale culture tank of 100 or more. Moreover, it is preferable because it does not give an excessive shock to the cells etc. compared to the conventional stirring type culture tank.

When culturing using conventional culture equipment equipped with stirring blades, cultured cells adhere to the walls significantly, so it is necessary to remove the adhered substances during or after culturing. cannot continue culturing. However, in the rotary cylindrical culture apparatus of the present invention, adhesion of cells, etc. to the walls hardly occurs during culture, so that culture can be continued for a long period of time.

Cooling water is passed through the heat exchanger to bring the temperature of the culture solution to 25℃.
After that, 4.8 kg of wet weight of purple callus was aseptically supplied through the medium supply port 9, sterile air was supplied through the air supply port 6 at a rate of 32 per minute, and the tank was rotated at a speed of 3 rpm. Culture was carried out for 14 days. At this time, the value of KLa (oxygen transfer capacity coefficient) is
9.9, and KLa without ventilation was 0.002.
The peripheral speed of the tank was 5.5 m/min. As a result of analyzing the culture solution after culturing, the dry cell yield was 1.3Kg.
The content of shikonin pigment in the cells was 13% by weight. After the culture was completed, there was almost no deposit inside the tank, and after a simple cleaning operation, the next culture could be carried out.

In addition, a large amount of deposits mainly composed of callus were found on the inner walls of the culture tank and the shaft of the stirrer, and in order to perform the next culture, it is necessary to scrape off the deposits with a special tool and then wash them. It was hot.
