| Abstract | The in vitro culture of human hematopoietic cells has recently received considerable attention due to its clinical importance. Most studies of the culture and expansion of hematopoietic cells have been performed in static cultures but only very few reports exist on the use of bioreactors where strict control of environmental variables is maintained. In this work, the design, characterization and application of a fully instrumented minibioreactor for the culture of human hematopoietic cells from umbilical cord blood is presented. The system consists of a stirred- tank reactor where cells are maintained in suspension in an homogeneous environment and without the need of a stromal feeding layer. The minibioreactor was coupled to a data acquisition and control system which continuously monitored pH, dissolved oxygen and redox potential. When operated at 75 rpm with a hanging magnetic bar (impeller-to-tank diameter ratio of 0.57), the dead and mixing times were 120 and 80 s, respectively, and the maximum response rate and volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient were 0.8 mM O2 hr-1, and 1.8 hr-1, respectively. Such characteristics allowed a tight control of pH(until day 11) and dissolved oxygen at predetermined set-points, and up to a 7-fold expansion of hematopoietic progenitors was possible in cultures maintained at 20% dissolved oxygen with respect to air saturation. Growth phase and cell concentration could be inferred on- line through determinations of oxygen uptake rate and culture redox potential. Oxygen uptake rate increased during exponential growth phase to a maximum of 40 μM hr-1. Such an increase closely followed the increase in concentration of hematopoietic progenitors. In contrast, culture redox potential decreased during exponential growth phase and then increased during death phase. The designed system permits not only the maintenance of controlled environmental conditions and on-line identification of fundamental culture parameters, but also the application of control strategies for improving expansion of hematopoietic cells. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
