A Review on Bioreactor Technology Assisted Plant Suspension Culture

Abstract

This review is related to bioreactors for plant suspension culture and its products. Bioreactor plays an important role in bioprocess engineering. The core of bioprocessing technology is the bioreactor. A bioreactor is basically a device in which the organisms are cultivated and helps in production of desired products in a contained environment. Bioreactors are usually a containment which provides optimal condition for microorganisms in order to produce desired products. In this review, the bioreactor's principle, working and its types are discussed. Enclosed by unit operations that carry out physical changes for medium preparation and recovery of products, the reactor is where the major chemical and biochemical transformations occur. In many bioprocess, characteristic of the reaction determined to a large extent the economic feasibility of the project. The integration of biosynthesis and separation is considered as a possible approach towards more efficient plant cell and tissue culture. In this review article, the aspects of bioprocess engineering for plant suspension culture and its products, bioreactor types, optimized strategies for production of secondary metabolites also and its industrial applications.

Suspension Cell Culture of Polyscias fruticosa (L.) Harms in Bubble-Type Bioreactors—Growth Characteristics, Triterpene Glycosides Accumulation and Biological Activity

“…For bioreactor cultivation, the bubble type of bioreactors and the semi-continuous cultivation regime were selected based on a review of the literature data on the classification of bioreactors and their technological parameters as well as on the results of our experience with bioreactor cultivation of the cell suspensions of other plant species [35,36,[49][50][51]. The aeration regime for bioreactors was selected experimentally.…”

Genetic Engineering of Purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.)

“…The demonstrated capacity for producing over a hundred tons of biomass per hectare per year under closed conditions [42] makes purslane an ideal candidate as the crop to produce its bio-molecules, reducing the risk associated with the fact it is a weed [43]. However, one cannot forget that the growth of purslane cell suspension using bioreactors [53] is another way ahead to produce such bio-molecules under a controlled environment. In such case, there is the need to develop protocols to obtain and maintain purslane cell suspension.…”

Application of Data Modeling, Instrument Engineering and Nanomaterials in Selected Medid the Scientific Recinal Plant Tissue Culture

“…Typical plant cell and tissue culture bioreactors are made of glass or stainless steel [ 88 ]. The morphology, rheology, growth, and production behavior of the culture should be considered comprehensively when selecting the most suitable bioreactor type.…”

“…In recent years, reactors dedicated to plant tissue and cell culture (PTCC) have been continuously improved including airlift, tubular membrane, silicone-tubing aerated, slug bubble, disposable wave and orbitally shaken, spray, helical ribbon impeller, rotating wall vessel (RWV) bioreactors, and stirred tank reactors [ 6 ]. Stirred reactors, rotating drum reactors, airlift reactors, bubble columns, fluidized bed reactors, and packed bed reactors are the most commonly used industrial and commercial reactors [ 88 ]. The advantages and disadvantages of a variety of reactors have been summarized by our predecessors, so will not be elaborated here.…”
