Breaking the Titer Ceiling: Smarter Media Design for Higher Productivity

Achieving higher titers in fed-batch bioproduction requires more than incremental media adjustments — it demands a data-driven rethink of how formulations are built.

This session explores a bottom-up strategy that starts with a chemically defined minimalist base and applies multi-component Design of Experiments (DOE) to pinpoint how key nutrients, amino acids, vitamins, trace elements, and energy sources shape cell growth, productivity, and quality. By systematically mapping these contributions, it becomes possible to design balanced basal and feed media that address common metabolic bottlenecks found in conventional systems. The result is improved culture robustness and measurable titer gains, achieved without compromising critical quality attributes.

For teams focused on upstream optimization, this approach offers a practical framework to enhance productivity while maintaining consistency. Watch the full webinar to see how rational media design translates into scalable performance improvements.
