Features of the prototype and experimental layout.
(A) The prototype is composed of a lid, three culture layers and a structural outer shell. (B) The layers fit inside each other in order to make the prototype compact. (C) Photo of the prototype. (D) 0.6 million cells were seeded into each dish at the beginning of each expansion. After 72 hours the cells were trypsinized and a sample collected for analysis. The same principle was applied to the prototype using its three layers.
