Application — Culture Methods by Nutrient Supply Type

Culture Methods by Nutrient Supply Type

Culture Methods Overview

Batch Culture

In a batch culture, a fixed amount of nutrients is initially provided in the culture medium. As the culture progresses, the nutrients are gradually consumed, and the cells eventually reach a stationary phase. This is the most common and basic culture method.

Fed-Batch Culture

Fed-batch culture is designed to enhance cell density and product yield compared to batch culture. In this method, additional nutrients are periodically or continuously added during cultivation, making it suitable for productivity improvement.

Continuous Culture

In continuous culture, fresh medium is continuously supplied while an equal volume of culture is simultaneously withdrawn. This maintains cells in a steady growth phase, allowing for stable and consistent production conditions.

Perfusion Culture

Perfusion culture allows for high-density and long-term cell cultivation. The medium is continuously perfused to supply nutrients and remove waste products, ensuring stable productivity and optimal cell growth.
