Abstract:
A method of reconstituting a powdered cell culture media includes providing a mixing apparatus and providing a powdered cell culture media to the fluid chamber of the mixing apparatus, prior to introducing fluid to the chamber. The method further includes introducing fluid to the chamber through an influent port, wherein the influent port is tangentially oriented relative to an inner wall of the fluid chamber to thereby cause the fluid to follow the wall of the fluid chamber in a circular motion, creating a vortex flow in the fluid chamber by introducing fluid at a sufficient flow rate, and enhancing the vortex flow with a geometric fluid flow aid by further channeling the water around the wall of the fluid chamber, around the geometric flow aid. The method further includes continuing to introduce fluid to the chamber and collecting reconstituted fluid that exits the chamber through the effluent port.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of reconstituting a powdered cell culture media, the method comprising:\n providing a mixing apparatus, comprising:\n at least one fluid chamber; \n a first cap enclosing a lower portion of the fluid chamber; \n a second cap enclosing an upper portion of the fluid chamber; \n an influent port in at least one of the first cap and the second cap; \n a geometric fluid flow aid coupled to the first cap and extending away from the lower cap in a direction towards a center of the fluid chamber, wherein the geometric fluid flow aid comprises a geometric shape having a decreasing diameter in the direction towards the center of the fluid chamber; \n a filter material associated with the second cap, wherein the filter material is used to keep the powdered cell culture media inside the fluid chamber until dissolved; and \n an effluent port in the second cap; \n providing a powdered cell culture media to the fluid chamber, prior to introducing fluid to the chamber; introducing fluid to the chamber through the influent port, wherein the influent port is tangentially oriented relative to an inner wall of the fluid chamber to thereby cause the fluid to follow the wall of the fluid chamber in a circular motion; creating a vortex flow in the fluid chamber by introducing fluid at a sufficient flow rate; enhancing the vortex flow with the geometric fluid flow aid by further channeling the water around the wall of the fluid chamber, around the geometric flow aid; and continuing to introduce fluid to the chamber and collecting reconstituted fluid that exits the chamber through the effluent port.
