title: A septate polycarbonate cell culture unit used for Plasmodium falciparum and hybridomas.
abstract: A new material, makrolon, is used for the construction of a large-scale cell culture vessel. It is strong, light, transparent, thermostable, septate and inexpensive. Several independent vessels of 500 ml each can be stacked. It has been used for Plasmodium falciparum and hybridoma cultures, where frequent renewal of the medium and a large gas/liquid interface are required.
