Abstract

L'invention concerne un module de culture cellulaire et un système de culture cellulaire. Le module de culture cellulaire comprend : un corps fermé qui est en communication avec l'extérieur uniquement au moyen d'une entrée de fluide de culture, une sortie de fluide de culture, une entrée de fluide cellulaire et une sortie de fluide cellulaire ; des cavités de fluide de culture et une cavité cellulaire qui sont situées dans le corps, les cavités de fluide de culture comprenant des cavités de fluide de culture indépendantes respectivement en communication avec l'entrée de fluide de culture et en communication avec la sortie de fluide de culture, et la cavité de cellule étant en communication avec l'entrée de fluide cellulaire et la sortie de fluide cellulaire ; des blocs d'étanchéité utilisés pour séparer la cavité de cellule et les cavités de fluide de culture ; et un filament de fibre creuse placé dans la cavité de cellule et ayant la paroi pourvue de micropores qui ne permettent pas à des cellules de passer, le filament de fibre creuse traversant les blocs d'étanchéité, et les deux extrémités du filament de fibre creuse étant respectivement en communication avec les cavités de liquide de culture au niveau de l'extrémité d'entrée de liquide de culture et au niveau de l'extrémité de sortie de liquide de culture. Le système de culture cellulaire comprend une puce de culture cellulaire, et peut être utilisé pour la culture de différentes cellules.
