GROW YOUR KNOWLEDGE TO GROW YOUR CELLS
CHI’s “The Bioprocessing Summit” brings together leaders in the field to present the most helpful information for those working with insect and mammalian cells, expressing proteins, and creating cell-based products. The four meetings that comprise the Summit cover real-world, hands-on tasks with the goal of optimizing cells and proteins, while minimizing time and costs.
The meetings are designed to specifically address the topics and concerns of those who are working with cells and bioprocesses, with an emphasis on featuring continually emerging innovations that stretch yesterday’s capacities. We hope you’re able to participate in this exciting gathering so you can grow your knowledge along with your cells.
2009 Short Course DVD
Optimizing Cell Culture Media – Achieving Super Soup DVD
The cell culture medium is a dynamic mixture consisting of amino acids, vitamins, a source of energy, growth factors, trace minerals and other components in a buffered salt solution. Each component has a shelf life, sensitivity to the physical environment and a variety of interactive and break-down products. The Classical mammalian cell culture formulations require further supplementation with a protein source such as serum and were designed using cancer-derived cell lines. Serum supplemented formulations for mammalian cells can be very sub-optimal for the growth of cells at high cell concentrations and for the isolation of recombinant products, antibodies or virus. This seminar will start with the role and problems associated with some of the key basic components of the medium and then show how Industry has been able to progress from serum-requiring to serum-free, to animal-component-free and then to chemically-defined formulations.
