Flow circulation: During the up-flow, the valve (1) is pushed upwards and seals the small holes (2). Culture medium flows upwards through the valve and backwards through the small holes. A backflow through the valve is prevented by PUHVs leaflets. The disc (3) prevents medium backflow along the external wall of the PUHV. Scale bar = 50 mm.
