Basic Cell Culture Education Series: CHO Media

The CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovary) cell line is currently the most popular choice for the mass production of recombinant protein therapeutics. CHO cell lines are robust in culture and can produce a variety of recombinant glycoproteins on a large scale at high titers. Different CHO clones often possess diverse nutritional requirements that are unique to each clone, and this is an important consideration when we select the most suitable media.
