A bioreactor is a useful thing to have in any biology lab. Fundamentally, it’s a tank in which biological activity can be nurtured and controlled. [The Thought Emporium] needed a visual aid for an ...

No Degree. No Diploma. Just Pure Curiosity. A 16-year old high school student built a replicator for “mini-brains,” and it is way better than its more expensive commercial counterparts. In fact, it ...

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has demonstrated a new application for its cell-expansion bioreactor to advance tissue engineering and cell-based therapies for treatment of injuries and diseases.

A fully-automated bioreactor to culture human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) long-term has been developed by researchers at the Fraunhofer Translational Center for Regenerative Therapies.

Although bioreactor scale-up often involves matching key engineering parameters, a biology-first approach should dictate the process.

Algae could play a surprising role in the fight against climate change. On Tuesday, A.I.-focused technology firm Hypergiant Industries announced a machine that uses the aquatic organisms to sequester ...

A new algae bioreactor can suck as much carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere as roughly an acre of forest — potentially giving dense cities a new weapon in the fight against catastrophic climate ...

Xcellerex XDR MO Fermentor Systems from GE Healthcare come in two sizes: 50 L and 500 L. (The 500-L system, the Xcellerex XDR 500 MO, is shown here.) According to the company, these single-use stirred ...

Schematic of a typical bioreactor. Key components include the reactor tank, agitation system, feeding pump, thermal jacket, submerged aerator, and sensor probes for monitoring and maintaining optimal ...

Researchers have created a new device that can trigger partial limb regrowth in frogs. The findings could lead to limb regeneration in mammals somewhere off in the future. Frogs are capable of ...

Scientists at UC San Francisco are working on a new approach to treating kidney failure that could one day free people from needing dialysis or having to take harsh drugs to suppress their immune ...
