BIOREACTOR AND A METHOD FOR MASS PROPOGATION OF PLANT CELL AGGREGATES

The present invention relates to a bioreactor ( 9) and a method for addition of nutrients and growth factors in the form of mist for the cultivation of plant cell aggregates comprising: an airtight chamber having a lid covering comprising a main chamber (18) being used as a growth chamber having carefully selected inert porous solid support (15) for absorbing nutrients and making it available to the growing plant cell aggregates; a venturi pump (14) for dispersal of nutrients installed on each side， the outlet of said venturi pump (14) being inserted in to said chamber through at least one of the top hole; a plurality of media reservoirs (10， 11) being in fluid communication with one of the free ends; a media recycling system (12， 13); a controller for automatically sprinkling the sterilized media at pre-defined time intervals; and an air filter at the air outlet on both sides of said chamber for ensuring supply of sterilized air.
