Abstract:
A Petri dish bioreactor can allow a standard Petri dish to be converted to a microscopically observable bioreactor. A bioreactor can be formed by the compression of a device against the edge of a Petri dish thus creating a sealed isolated chamber. One advantage of this conversion is to provide an inexpensive device that can be used for cell culture, observation, transportation, and storage in the laboratory and clinical setting. Further, by creating a sealed bioreactor chamber accessible by ports, the device can reduce cross contamination and allow for the maintenance of a controlled microenvironment within the bioreactor.

Claim (Index 1):
An isolated bioreactor system for creating a watertight and airtight seal between the bioreactor system and a surrounding environment, the system comprising:\n an adapter compression cap, operatively connected to a petri dish and configured to hold the petri dish in place, wherein the adapter compression cap comprises a first connection component; an adapter body comprising:\n a transmission window configured to allow transmission of light and unobstructed viewing through a top surface of the adapter body to the petri dish; \n at least one port comprising an external end, an internal end, and a conduit therebetween, the internal end of the at least one port comprising a surface directly attached to an upper surface of the adapter body, the at least one port at an angle with respect to a horizontal axis defined by a bottom surface of the petri dish, the angle sufficient to permit access to a bottom of the petri dish, wherein the angle is between about 15 degrees and about 65 degrees; and \n a second connection component that interacts with the first component to generate compression between the adapter body and the adapter compression cap; and \n a gasket operatively connected to the adapter body and the petri dish, \n wherein the gasket comprises at least one arcuate concave groove that, when compressed against the petri dish, interacts with a wall of the petri dish.
