Cell Line Development

From first construct to GMP-ready master cell bank—fast, traceable, and built to scale.


Quick Facts

  • CHO-K1, CHO-ZN, HEK293, Pichia—four plug-and-play platforms
  • 96 → 1 536 clones screened per campaign (AI-ranked hit list)
  • ≤ 10 days from transfection to copy-number-verified pools
  • > 95 % genetic stability across 60 doublings
  • Up to 10 g L-¹ titer in 14-day fed-batch feasibility runs

Integrated Workflow

  1. Vector & Construct Design
    Codon-optimized gene, synthetic introns, and secretion tags finalized and QC-sequenced in < 48 h.
  2. Genome Insertion / Transfection
    CRISPR/Cas9 knock-ins or high-efficiency electroporation; single-use closed systems cut contamination risk to near zero.
  3. Pool Generation & High-Throughput Screening
    AI-guided imaging + FACS sort top-2 % producers; Octet titer assay confirms hits the same day.
  4. Clonal Isolation & Mini-Bioreactor Ranking
    24-deep ambr® 15 and 250 mL DASbox runs map CPP/CQA space and predict full-scale kinetics.
  5. Stability & Productivity Verification
    60-generation passaging, Southern blot / ddPCR copy-number checks, and glycan profiling lock candidate.
  6. Master & Working Cell Banks
    GMP fills in ISO 5 isolators; full sterility, mycoplasma, and adventitious-virus panels included.

Why Aquaterra?

  • Days, Not Months – Lab-to-verified pools in ≤ 10 days; clone finalization typically ≤ 8 weeks.
  • AI-Ranked Picks – Machine-vision scoring cuts false positives by 70 %, focusing resources on true high producers.
  • Regulatory-Ready – Every banking run generates a CTD-aligned dossier—no backfill paperwork.
  • Built for Scale – Mini-bioreactor data feeds digital twins that mirror shear and k<sub>La</sub> at 2 000 L and beyond.
