Immobilized Cell Research

Abstract

This report is based on two meetings held in Europe in December 1989, and April 1990, as well as Dr. Cooksey's observations. Specifically, the meetings were: (a) Physiology of Immobilized Cells held in Wageningen, the Netherlands, and organized by the European Federation of Biotechnology and the Agricultural University at Wageningen; (b) Immobilized Cell Processes organized by the Society for General Microbiology of the United Kingdom at Warwick University. Proceedings of the first conference will be available in late 1990 from Elsevier. The second conference will not be published. The general interest in biotechnological production systems using fixed-cell reactors is increasing. Two similar meetings being held in less than 6 months is a strong indication of the interest. Although these meetings dealt specifically with the biotechnological side of cellular immobilization, there are aspects of this research that have importance in other fields.
