Cell clone selection—impact of operation modes and medium exchange strategies on clone ranking by Marie Dorn, Christine Ferng, Kerensa Klottrup-Rees, Kenneth Lee, Martina Micheletti

“…The change of operation mode from bolus feeding to perfusion with a regular exchange of medium, leads to questions regarding the reliability and fit of initial clone selection. Is the early-stage clone ranking impacted by the discrepancy in the operation mode, and does this potentially result in the exclusion of cell clones suitable for perfusion processes? …”
