Bioreactors are vessels or devices that support a biologically active environment, allowing for the growth of cells, tissues, or microorganisms under controlled conditions. They are commonly used in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and research to produce biological products, study biological processes, or carry out experiments. Bioreactors can vary in size and design, with some being small enough to fit on a laboratory bench, while others are large enough to require an entire room for operation. These devices provide a controlled environment for the organisms or cells being cultured, including parameters such as temperature, pH, oxygen levels, and nutrient supply.
