Abstract
A bioreactor is provided for circulating a fluid medium. To reduce manufacturing and maintenance expenses, the bioreactor is formed from two sheets of transparent plastic. Structurally, each sheet has first and second edges extending in an axial direction between proximal and distal ends. To form the bioreactor, the sheets are sealed to one another along their respective first edges, distal ends, and second edges. Also, the sheets are sealed to one another along an axially-extending boundary positioned between the first and second edges. As a result, a substantially U-shaped channel is defined between the first and second sheets. Further, two side-by-side openings to the channel are defined by the proximal ends of the sheets. Also, the bioreactor includes a conduit interconnecting the first opening and the second opening. A pump is positioned in the conduit to circulate the fluid medium through the channel.
