Stresses which arise in bioreactors can influence process performance considerably. Recent molecular biological investigations indicate that stress caused by fluid dynamical effects and extreme values of process variables and toxic substances cause similar responses in the cells. These molecular fundamentals, as well as quantitative evaluation of fluid dynamical stresses and, their effects on microorganisms, animal and plant cells and proteins are treated in this volume.
Animal cell technology is becoming an increasingly important part of biotechnology and many products are now used in human health care and for veterinary applications. However, there are many times more products actually in the developmental pipelines of the biotechnology industry, including various phases of clinical trials. The Proceedings of the 15th Meeting of the European Society for Animal Cell Technology (Tours, France, September 1997) presents the actual current state as well as New Developments and Applications in Animal Cell Technology for the benefit of society. These Proceedings represent both the current state and applications of animal cell technology and the way the technology is expanding into new areas to give a unique insight into new products and applications for human and animal health care.

Cell Culture Engineering IV, Improvements of Human Health covers the latest approaches to improving the cell host through improved understanding of the molecular biology, the development of novel vaccines, approaches to bioreactor design and operation, monitoring techniques in process control and quality related topics. The work was carefully put together as one result of the Cell Culture Engineering IV Meeting held in San Diego, U.S.A. in 1994, however, the book may not be perceived as a proceedings volume - the criteria of the book series apply. For cell biologists, biochemists, molecular biologists, immunologists and other disciplines related to cell culture engineering, working in the academic environment, as well as in (biotechnology or pharmaceutical) industry.
Looking at biosensors from a biotechnologist's viewpoint, this volume provides information on how to interface the sensor bioprocess, how to automate the entire analytical procedure, and how to use computers for enhanced data evaluation. There are chapters on biosensor-based monitoring in microbial and mammalian cell cultures, and chapter examples are all taken fron actual application rather than theoretical discussion.
Production of Biologicals from Animal Cells in Culture reviews the state of the art in animal cell biotechnology, with emphasis on the sequence of events that occur when generating a biological from animal cells in culture. Methods that enable adjustment of nutrient feed streams into perfusion bioreactors so as to increase productivity are described. A number of issues are also addressed, such as the usefulness of the fingerprint method for cell characterization. Comprised of 135 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the problems and benefits of animal cell culture, followed by a discussion on the isolation of immortal murine macrophage cell lines. The reader is systematically intro...
