Software sensors for the monitoring of perfusion cultures: Evaluation of the hybridoma density and the medium composition from glucose concentration measurements

  • Chapter
Cell Culture Engineering IV

Abstract

New software sensors based on the Extended Kaiman Filter technique have been developed for the monitoring of animal cell perfusion cultures. They use a kinetic model describing the growth, death and metabolism of hybridoma cells as a function of the medium composition. The model was initially validated on a batch culture and found to correctly predict the continuous perfusion culture kinetics, except for the production of ammonia and lactate. Using the measurement of a single component in the culture medium, in this case glucose, the Extended Kaiman Filter provides an excellent evaluation of the time variation of the concentrations of living and dead cells, of glutamine and antibodies, during the whole perfusion culture for a retained cell density rising from 1 to 11 × 106 cells.ml-1 inside the reactor.
