A METHOD OF DETERMINING A COMPOSITIONAL OR FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTIC OF A CELL CULTURE MEDIA

摘要

A method of determining or predicting a characteristic of a query cell culture media comprises the steps of (a) generating an environmental response fingerprint specific for query cell culture media according to a method of any of Claims 1 to 3, (b) comparing the query cell culture media-specific environmental response fingerprint of step (a) with a reference media-specific environmental response fingerprints corresponding to a reference media having a known characteristics and generated using the reference cell, and (c) determining or predicting a characteristic of the query cell culture media based on the level of correlation between the query cell culture media-specific environmental response fingerprint and the reference media-specific environmental response fingerprints.
