Journal ArticleDOI

A xenogeneic-free bioreactor system for the clinical-scale expansion of human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells

TL;DR: A xenogeneic (xeno)‐free microcarrier‐based culture system was successfully established for bone marrow (BM) MSC and adipose tissue‐derived stem/stromal cell (ASC) cultivation using a 1L‐scale controlled stirred‐tank bioreactor system under xeno‐free conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scalable microcarrier-based manufacturing of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells.

TL;DR: A comprehensive overview on the scalable manufacturing of human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells is provided, depicting the various steps involved in the process from cell isolation to ex vivo expansion, using different cell tissue sources and culture medium formulations and exploiting bioprocess engineering tools namely microcarrier technology and bioreactors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stirred tank bioreactor culture combined with serum-/xenogeneic-free culture medium enables an efficient expansion of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells.

TL;DR: The development of a scalable microcarrier-based stirred culture system, using xeno-free culture medium that suits the intrinsic features of UCM-derived MSC represents an important step towards a GMP compliant large-scale production platform for these promising cell therapy candidates.
