Helical-Track Bioreactors for Bacterial, Mammalian and Insect Cell Cultures

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser

We investigated the cultivation of bacterial, mammalian and insect cells in an orbitally-shaken 250-mL disposable tube that incorporates a helical track (HT) on its inside wall. The mass transfer coefﬁcient of oxygen (kLa) was 200%–400% higher in the HT tu ...

Study of the improved Sf9 transient gene expression process

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Xiao Shen

Insect cells have been widely used for the production of recombinant proteins using recombinant baculovirus for gene delivery [1]. To simplify protein production in insect cells, we have previously described a method, based on transient gene expression (TG ...

A NanoDrop-based method for rapid determination of viability decline in suspension cultures of animal cells

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser

We describe a rapid method for monitoring the cell growth and decline phases in suspension cultures of animal cells. During the cell growth phase, ultraviolet (UV)-absorbing components in the medium are consumed, but at later times as cells begin to die, U ...

Valproic acid enhances recombinant mRNA and protein levels in transiently transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells

Florian Maria Wurm, David Hacker, Lucia Baldi Unser, Sarah Wulhfard

Valproic acid (VPA) is a small molecule that inhibits histone deacetylase activity. Here we report that VPA increases recombinant mRNA and protein levels in transiently transfected CHO DG44 cells. In the presence of VPA, transient recombinant antibody yiel ...
