    Abstract:
    Japanese new space agency (merger of NASDA, ISAS and NAL), JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) has been developing the Plant Experiment Unit (PEU) and the Cell Experiment Unit (CEU), which will be used within the Cell Biology Experiment Facility (CBEF) in "Kibo" Japanese Experiment Module (JEM) of ISS. They can also be operated within the Clean Bench (CB) in Kibo. We report the preliminary results of ground based verification experiments using the PEU and the CEU. Six units of PEU/CEU in microgravity section and 4 units of PEU/CEU in control-g section, will be operated within CBEF.
