Reduced glutamine concentration improves protein production in growth-arrested CHO-DG44 and HEK-293E cells

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Yashas Rajendra, Divor Kiseljak

For most cultivated mammalian cells, glutamine is an essential medium component. However, glutamine consumption results in the production of ammonia, a cytotoxic byproduct. Here we investigated the effect of glutamine reduction on recombinant protein produ ...

Efficient and reproducible mammalian cell bioprocesses without probes and controllers?

Florian Maria Wurm, Mohamed Farhat, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Matthieu Dreyer, Martino Reclari

Bioprocesses for recombinant protein production with mammalian cells are typically controlled for several physicochemical parameters including the pH and dissolved oxygen concentration (DO) of the culture medium. Here we studied whether these controls are ...
