| Production of Bioactivity Secondary Metabolites by Cell and Tissue Cultures of Marine Seaweeds in Bioreactor Systems |
| Scaleable
cultivation of cell and tissue suspension cultures derived from marine macroalgae requires a special type of bioreactor called a
photobioreactor. The
photobioreactor is designed to provide optimal
illumination, mixing, CO2 mass transfer, and nutrients to the
phototrophic liquid suspension. Below,
three representative photobioreactor reactor systems
are pictured: the perfusion airlift
photobioreactor, the stirred tank photobioreactor,
and the tubular recycle photobioreactor. |
