Microbial cells cultivation is not only the origin, but also the foundation of microbiology. Researches in microbiology can only be carried out when the microbial cells can be cultured. However, conventional microbial cell cultivation is not only time consuming and labour intensive, but human error is also inevitable. Recent years, automated, modularised microbial cells micro-cultivation systems with small volume, good controllability, and equipped with real-time monitoring system have attracted great attention in microbiology. This review presents the state-of-the-art micro-cultivation systems which are implemented in microbial cells cultivation. The key development, applications of various system classified based on their construction, and the prospects of micro-cultivation system are discussed and insights into them are also provided.
