Today, more than 30 products using a manufacturing process based on mammalian cell culture have been approved for human therapy. Most of these products are currently supplied with stirred tank bioreactors operated in batch or fed-batch mode. However, the b ...
This thesis presents the fabrication and design of an impedance imaging sensor, and its application to monitoring in-vitro skin culture. Three-dimensional tissue cultures are becoming increasingly important in biological and medical research. There is, how ...
Different cell sources for bone tissue engineering are reviewed. In particular, adult cell source strategies have been based on the implantation of unfractionated fresh bone marrow; purified, culture expanded mesenchymal stem cells, differentiated osteobla ...
Exposure to human serum induces the lysis of xenogeneic cells through natural antibodies and complement activation. The carbohydrate Galactose-alpha1,3-Galactose (Gal-alpha1,3-Gal) epitope, has been shown to be the principal antigenic determinant on target ...
Integrity and preservation of a transparent cornea are essential for good vision. The corneal epithelium is stratified and nonkeratinized and is maintained and repaired by corneal stem cells. Here we demonstrate that Notch1 signaling is essential for cell ...
BACKGROUND: Autologous transplantation is an attractive approach to treat some neurological diseases. A major obstacle is the capacity to produce cells for transplantation at the appropriate time. We describe a cryopreservation procedure for adult human br ...
PURPOSE: We propose a feasibility study of new corneal topography technology with the aim of monitoring intraoperative corneal topography during excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy. The PAR system measures corneal topography with single grid projecti ...
Comprehensive and cGMP suitable bioprocess monitoring is still a challenge in microbial fermn. and cell culture process development. This paper discusses the exploitation of in-situ mid-IR spectroscopy in combination with partial least-squares anal. to mon ...
There are currently two methods for maintaining cultured mammalian cells, continuous passage at 37 degrees C and freezing in small batches. We investigated a third approach, the "pausing" of cells for days or weeks at temperatures below 37 degrees C in a v ...
Current therapy for several forms of anemia involves a weekly regime of multiple subcutaneous injections of recombinant human erythropoietin (hEpo). In an effort to provide a physiologically regulated administration of erythropoietin, we are developing cel ...
