商品簡介
Bioprocessing for Cell Based Therapies details both existing industrial methods for the large-scale production of a variety of cell types including stem cells, as well as novel recent developments in cell culture from the bioprocessing research community. The book covers fermenter design, 2D and 3D systems, and carrier materials, as well as growth media and conditions. Issues around the supply chain are examined, including current best practice and novel means currently under development. Finally, how the cells are delivered to the patient, within a clinical setting, is discussed.
Contributing authors have been drawn from both academic leaders in the field as well as from experienced industrial partners, ensuring that the book covers both new and applied areas within bioprocessing for cell-based therapies.
This book is aimed at those at the cutting edge of bioprocessing of cell based therapeutics, both within industry and academia, as well as serving as an introduction to the subject for those who are looking to gain a foothold in this rapidly developing and exciting area of medicine.
Che J. Connon is a Professor of Tissue Engineering at the Institute of Genetic Medicine, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom. His research interests lie in the design and application of innovative bio-materials to regenerative medicine and bio-processing.
作者簡介
Che Connon, is Professor of Tissue Engineering at the Institute of Genetic Medicine,?University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK; he is also a member of the Bioprocessing Research Industry Club (supported by the BBSRC and EPSRC). His research focuses on seeking to engineer functional replacement and temporary 'bridge' tissues using a modular approach while also developing model systems to study physiological and pathophysiological corneal tissue formation. He is the author of Corneal Regenerative Medicine (with Bernice Wright, 2013) and Hydrogels in Cell-Based Therapies (with Ian W Hamley, 2014), as well as numerous research papers.
