Evaluation of the suppression of protein aggregation in CHO cell culture

Materials & Methods (1)

  1. Protein solution of a bispecific antibody (bispecific
    single-chained diabody with Fc, scDb-Fc, 0.8 mg/mL) was prepared with or without addition of trehalose (200 mM) in culture medium.
  2. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy of the scDb-Fc protein contained in the supernatant was measured.

Materials & Methods (2)

  1. The scDb-Fc (0.8 mg/mL) solution prepared in the same manner as described in M & M (1) was heat-treated at 60℃ for 5 minutes.
  2. The precipitate was removed by centrifugation.
  3. The soluble fraction of scDb-Fc protein in the supernatant was measured.
