Gibco™ CD FortiCHO™ Medium
Description
CD FortiCHO™ medium is specifically designed to offer the highest batch and fed-batch culture performance and yield with recombinant CHO cells in a chemically defined environment. The protein-free, animal origin component-free formulation provides consistency and helps reduce the need to screen for adventitious agents. With CD FortiCHO™ medium cell cultures last 2+ days longer than competitive alternatives, which means decreased HCP (Host Cell Protein) concentration for removal in downstream purification.
CD FortiCHO™ medium is fortified to support maximal recombinant CHO cell growth and protein expression in suspension batch culture, offering 120% greater growth and production than select competitive media with simple glucose supplementation. CD FortiCHO™ medium can provide up to 75% greater fed-batch growth and production over glucose-only fed-batch culture for selected cell lines and applications when used with CD EfficientFeed™ C nutrient supplement.
When to Use CD FortiCHO™ Medium
The cell line you are using is a transfected CHO K1, GS CHO or CHO-S™ cell line
Maximum batch culture cell densities and protein titers are needed
You have time to adapt cells into a new medium in an effort to maximize titers
Cell health at harvest is a priority for downstream processing
When to Consider Another Gibco™ Medium
Consider CD OptiCHO™ medium when:
You are using a transfected CHO cell line other than CHO K1, GS CHO or CHO-S™ cell lines
Optimization of feeding strategies will be part of your base medium selection testing in an effort to maximize productivity
Your CHO cell line is finicky, i.e. hard to grow or adapt
Consider CD CHO medium when:
Your GS CHO cells are recommended to be grown in CD CHO medium
Your cells have been successfully cultured in CD CHO medium in the past and your process is nearing a regulatory filing (DMF available)
Consider CD DG44 when:
You use parental DG44 or DXB11 CHO cells (dhfr-)
