Project Summary (1995-2000)
The Cell Culture and Bioprocessing Core supports all projects consolidated under the bioremediation focus of the project. The primary role of the facility is to produce large volumes of either cells or cell products. A secondary role is to consolidate exploratory bioreactor work into one facility. The function of the core includes consultation, training, and service in the use of cell models in toxicology. The facility staff are developing a program to train individuals in sterile techniques and commonly used procedures for maintaining various cell populations in cultures.
