Gibco™ CD OptiCHO™ AGT™ Medium

When to Use CD OptiCHO™ Medium

• You are using a transfected CHO cell line other than CHO K1, GS CHO or CHO-S™ cell lines
• Optimization of feeding strategies will be part of your base medium selection testing in an effort to maximize productivity
• Your CHO cell line is 'finicky,' i.e. hard to grow or adapt

When to Consider Another Gibco™ Medium

Consider CD FortiCHO™ medium (Cat. No. A1148301) when:

• The cell line you are using is a transfected CHO K1, GS CHO or CHO-S™ cell line
• Maximum batch culture cell densities and protein titers are needed
• You have time to adapt cells into a new medium in an effort to maximize titers
• Cell health at harvest is a priority for downstream processing

Consider CD CHO medium (Cat. No. 10743029) when:

• Your GS CHO cells are recommended to be grown in CD CHO medium
• Your cells have been successfully cultured in CD CHO medium in the past and your process is nearing a regulatory filing (DMF available)

Consider CD DG44 medium (Cat. No. 12610010) when:

• You use parental DG44 or DXB11 CHO cells (dhfr-)

Liquid Media Formulations

Gibco™ AGT™ media are also available in a liquid format (Cat. No. 12681011) that offers the same performance and formulation as the AGT™ media format. Gibco™ liquid media are manufactured animal origin-free with the same complete, serum-free, protein-free, chemically-defined formulation and performance as their AGT™ media counterparts.
