Cell Culture Media Prototyping: Testing For Success

During scale-up, drug developers may face issues with the manufacturability, procurement, and cost management of their cell culture media. While a formulation may be successful at a bench scale, it can be challenging to predict its performance at an increased scale, especially if a new media format is required to support large-scale production.

Prototyping pilot media allows you to source and test small-scale batches of non-GMP media—whether catalog, custom, or proprietary—in your process. Screening pilot media can help you identify process and material optimizations that may provide benefits throughout your bioprocessing journey.
