Large Scale Cell Culture Technology

This book presents methods for the production of biotechnology products ranging from fermentation and encapsulation to hollow fibres and fluidized beds, all described by leaders in the field. It reflects recent innovations with continuous culture, process control, the incorporation of selective membranes and cell immobilization. The important aspects of each approach are detailed, and experimental results given to reflect the utility of each. The various production methods are extensively described in terms of principles, equipment and results, so that informed comparisons may be made. A critical evaluation of the different approaches is included, as well as a section on regulatory considerations.Lydersen, Bjorn K. is the author of 'Large Scale Cell Culture Technology', published 1988 under ISBN 9780195207651 and ISBN 0195207653.
