Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif et un procédé permettant d'effectuer automatiquement une expérience métabolique sur culture cellulaire et une collecte ou une surveillance en ligne. Le dispositif comprend un dispositif de culture cellulaire, un dispositif de distribution de fluide de culture, un dispositif d'injection et d'échantillonnage automatique, et un dispositif de collecte ou de surveillance. Selon le dispositif et le procédé permettant d'effectuer automatiquement une expérience métabolique sur culture cellulaire et une collecte ou une surveillance en ligne, une expérience métabolique sur culture cellulaire et une collecte ou une surveillance en ligne peuvent être effectuées automatiquement, réduisant les opérations manuelles, et conduisant à une précision d'expérience plus élevée. Les conditions requises pour la culture cellulaire peuvent être réglées et surveillées de telle sorte que les cellules peuvent être cultivées dans des conditions environnementales spécifiées. Des états d'observation microscopique des cellules, des constituants d'un fluide métabolique, et analogues peuvent être collectés ou surveillés en ligne, ce qui permet d'effectuer une analyse comparative en temps réel sur les états expérimentaux.
