ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a cell/tissue culture apparatus for applying a physical stimulation necessary for the proliferation and growth of a cell or tissue to a material to be cultivated serving as a cell or tissue to be cultivated, thereby realizing the culture as desired and protecting the material to be cultivated from contamination of various bacteria and so forth. The cell/tissue culture apparatus comprises a cylindrically formed material to be cultivated (matrix18), a chamber (culture chamber8) for accommodating therein the material to be cultivated, a circulation path (first circulation path32) connected to the material to be cultivated through which a culture fluid is circulated in an inner side of the material to be cultivated, a pump (tube pump36) for controlling a velocity of the culture fluid, control means (controller60) and so forth, wherein the culture fluid (30) having different flows is supplied to the inner side and an outer side of the material to be cultivated, thereby applying an optional physical stimulation to the material to be cultivated serving as the cell or tissue to be cultivated, thereby realizing the culture as desired and protecting the material to be cultivated from contamination of various bacteria and so forth.
