“…In the past, hollow -fiber bioreacto rs have been used for productio n of industrial and clinical-g rade reagents such as monoclonal antibodies (Knight, 1989;Roggenbuck et al, 1995;Inoue et al, 1996), expansion of infusible cells (Knazek et al, 1990;Packard, 1990;Freedm an et al, 1994), and other biologics destined for pharm acologica l applicati ons (Bano et al, 1985;Liu et al, 1987;Liu et al, 1991). An ACS available commercially (Cellco Division, Spectrum Laboratorie s, Lagura Hills, CA) would provide the potential advantage s of introducing a fixed pericellul ar environm ent and accomm odating a relatively large quantity of cells at high cell density; in fact, tum or-infiltr ating lym phocytes have been grow n in this system (Knazek et al, 1990).…”
