Introduction to cell factory
Cell factory is a method of large-scale cell and tissue culture and observation by applying the theories and methods of cell biology and molecular biology to monitor the growth rate and metabolism of cells in the process of cell culture.
Cell factories are widely used in mass production of vaccines, monoclonal antibodies or pharmaceutical industry because they can flexibly select the number of layers and culture area of cell culture, have compact structure and low risk of pollution.
Anyone who has studied biology knows that no matter the cells of animals, plants or single-cell microorganisms, they are a cell factory. The ability of cells to synthesize substances necessary for life activities is much greater than that of chemical plants. It can synthesize not only simple glycerol and acetic acid, but also extremely complex proteins and nucleic acids. Our chemists are also amazed at its economy and effectiveness. It can be said that since chemical synthesis, there is no one comparable to cells. Thousands of proteins can be synthesized in such a small cell, and it takes only 1.5 minutes to synthesize a peptide chain with 150 amino acids. This can't be done in a chemical plant.
The organic synthesis of cells gives chemists great enlightenment to learn from cells and effectively borrow the structure of these natural substances, or the principles of Biochemistry and the whole biosynthesis route to produce the substances people need. For example, quinine (antimalarial drug) and reserpine (antihypertensive drug) are extracted from plants. Plant cells synthesize these drugs. Chemists studied these synthetic processes and redesigned the factory to produce artificial quinine and reserpine. Under some conditions, synthetic products, such as vitamins A, C, B and h, are more ideal than natural products.This is the help of the biosynthesis of biological cells.
Cell factories are used for industrial mass production, such as vaccines, monoclonal antibodies or the pharmaceutical industry
● suitable for laboratory operation and large-scale cell culture
● the product has 1, 2, 5 and 10 layers respectively, and the culture area is 640cm ²～ 6335 cm ²
● save time and space. One ten layer cell factory has a culture area equivalent to 36 t-175 cell culture bottles
● ready to use without any other accessories
● TC treatment of the surface to ensure conditions for cell adhesion and growth
● linear amplification, and the growth kinetics is exactly the same as that of experimental culture
● The large mouth is convenient for users to fill and empty directly
