2. INTRODUCTION
 Device or vessel, which are designed to provide an effective
environment for conversion of one material into some product by
appropriate biochemical reactions
 like-enzymes, microorganisms, cells of animals and plants,
subcellular structures such as chloroplasts and mitochondria
For- cell growth, enzyme production, biocatalysis, food
production, milk processing, tissue engineering, algae production,
protein synthesis, & anaerobic digestion

3. CLASSIFICATION
Bioreactor
Animal Plant Microbes
On the Basis of Operational Conditions and
The Nature of the Process

4. STRATEGIES FOR PLANT
Plant
1. Plant cell
bioreactor
2.Plant as bioreactor

5. On the basis of dynamics

8. ON THE BASIS OF CELLS TO CLUTURE
Seed-based plant bioreactors
Plant Suspension Cultures
Hairy Root System Bioreactor
Chloroplast bioreactor

10. VACCINE ANTIGENS
Antigens like-
• Insulin
• Rotavirus enterotoxin
• Anthrax lethal factor
• HIV antigen
• Foot and mouth disease virus antigen
• Heat stable toxin

11. THERAPEUTIC PRODUCTS
• The first successful production of a functional antibody, namely a
mouse immunoglobulin IgGI in plants, was reported in 1989.
• In 1992, C.J. Amtzen and co-workers- expressed hepatitis B surface
antigen in tobacco to produce immunologically active ingredients
via genetic engineering of plants

12. Nutritional components
• β-carotene (Naqvi et al., 2009),
• Lycopene (Fraser et al., 2002),
• Flavonoid (Butelli et al., 2008),
• Nutraceuticals (Kang et al., 2009),
• Fatty acid (Hoffmann et al., 2008),
• Vitamines (Nunes et al., 2009),
• Minerals (Lee & An, 2009) &
• Carbohydrates (Regina et al., 2006).

13. Biodegradable plastics
• Polyhydroxyalkanoates: biodegradable polymers which occur
naturally in plants.
• Plant was engineered to produce-
 PHAs or PHBs in the various plant cell compartments

14. Industrial products
• Hgc- Most expensive Drug
• hST (Human somatotropin)
• rHLF (Recombinant human lactoferrin)
• Synthetic fiber: Produced from Potato and tobacco.

15. ADVANTAGE & DISADVANTAGE
• Low cost source.
• Simple & Cost effective.
• Plant pathogens do not infect humans or animals.
• Produce large biomass.
• Easy storage for long time.
Plant proteins have different sugar residues from human or
animal proteins.
