Amongst the laboratories at the Biotecnology Research Center (CIB) of Costa Rica Institute of Technology (TEC), is the Bioprocesses Laboratory. This area involves all the lines of action of CIB, using bioreactors or temporary immersion bioreactors to grow microorganisms (bacteria, fungi and yeasts), plant cells, microalgae and animal cells with a common goal: the mass production of cells or bioactive compounds, becoming an effective tool for micropropagation, since it increases the multiplication coefficient and improves the quality of the material regenerated in vitro.

On the other hand, several culture conditions can be controlled in these systems, such as pH, agitation, dissolved oxygen and foam production. The CIB has four bioreactors for research, ranging from 250 mL, 3 L and up to 7 L. This article summarizes some of the projects which have studied plants and microorganisms in bioreactors at CIB. Entre los laboratorios con que cuenta el Centro de Investigación en Biotecnología (CIB) del Instituto Tecnológico de Costa Rica (TEC), está el Laboratorio de Bioprocesos. Esta área involucra todas las líneas de acción del CIB, ya que con el uso biorreactores o biorreactores de inmersión temporal se pueden poner a crecer microorganismos (bacterias, hongos y levaduras), células vegetales, microalgas y células animales, con un objetivo en común: la producción masiva de células o de compuestos bioactivos, convirtiéndose en una herramienta eficaz para la micropropagación, ya que incrementa el coeficiente de multiplicación y produce el mejoramiento en la calidad del material regenerado in vitro. El empleo de estos sistemas incide en la reducción de los costos de producción en el cultivo a escala, ampliamente documentado en gran número de especies de valor comercial. Por otra parte, se controlan varias condiciones de cultivo como lo son pH, agitación, oxígeno disuelto y la producción de espuma. El CIB cuenta con cuatro biorreactores para investigación, que van desde 250 ml, 3 L y hasta 7 L. En este artículo se presenta una descripción de las investigaciones con diferentes microorganismos y células vegetales que han sido estudiados en este sistema en el CIB. 2019-09-09 2020-09-25T23:12:41Z 2020-09-25T23:12:41Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.tec.ac.cr/index.php/tec_marcha/article/view/4626 10.18845/tm.v32i9.4626 https://hdl.handle.net/2238/12005 spa https://revistas.tec.ac.cr/index.php/tec_marcha/article/view/4626/4232 application/pdf Editorial Tecnológica de Costa Rica (entidad editora) Tecnología en marcha Journal; 2019: Vol. 32 Núm. especial. 25 Aniversario Centro de Investigación en Biotecnología; Pág 41-46 Revista Tecnología en Marcha; 2019: Vol. 32 Núm. especial. 25 Aniversario Centro de Investigación en Biotecnología; Pág 41-46 2215-3241 0379-3982
