Floating porous ceramics for high densiti cell culture in stirred bioreactors

Floating porous ceramics has been successfully developed using protein foaming-consolidation method. This method allows the control of porosity not only by the varied concentration of protein but also by managing the foaming process. Slurries of alumina powders and yolk was prepared by stirring...
