General description

EX-CELL® CD CHO Fusion is a chemically defined, animal-component free medium developed for the long-term growth of Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells. The absence of any large macro molecules allows for isolation and purification of secreted proteins from the cells. This medium is supplied without L-glutamine to aid in media stability, to avoid L-glutamine degradation that causes ammonia build-up and to provide an appropriate medium for the culture of CHO cells using glutamine synthetase selection (example: MilliporeSigma’s CHOZN GS knockout cell line). This medium does not contain hypoxanthine or thymidine to allow for its use with dihydrofolate reductase(DHFR-) gene amplification systems (example: MilliporeSigma’s CHOZN DHFR knockout cell line).

Quantity

Formulated to contain 20.9 grams of powder per liter of medium.

Chinese hamster (Cricetulus griseus) ovary-derived Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are the most commonly used mammalian hosts for the industrial production of recombinant therapeutics because of their ability to fold, assemble, and perform post-translational modifications, such as glycosylation, on proteins.

With the increasing demand to provide more detailed quality attributes, more sophisticated glycan analysis tools are highly desirable for biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Here, we performed an intact glycopeptide analysis method to simultaneously analyze the site-specific N- and O-glycan profiles of the
