Abstract

Cell line development aims to generate and select clones with desirable characteristics. One of the most important parameters for biopharmaceutical cell selection is cell-specific productivity (Qp) or the quantity of product produced per cell per day. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) is a powerful, high-throughput technique that facilitates multiparametric characterization and isolation of individual cell clones from heterogeneous populations. Here, we describe a FACS-based method for section of high-producing CHO cell clones.

Keywords: Biopharmaceutical; Cell line development; FACS; Flow cytometry; Productivity; Sort.
