Abstract: Disclosed are methods for improving compound detection and characterization. Methods for characterizing a sample are disclosed. The methods can include providing a sample to a liquid chromatography system capable of sample separation to generate sample components; analyzing sample components by multiplexed targeted selected ion monitoring (SIM) to generate an inclusion list; and performing iterative mass spectral data-dependent acquisition (DDA) from the inclusion list, to identify individual sample components thereby characterizing the sample. In one example, multiplexed targeted SIMs and iterative MS2 DDA acquisition is used to increase robust compound identification for cell culture medium analysis.

Abstract: Methods of improving recombinant protein titer and cell titer in cell culture using cell culture media having reduced impurities are provided, and well as cell culture media having reduced impurities that can used for the production of a recombinant protein and cells with improved titer. The cell culture media having reduced impurities comprises a HEPES buffer, and the reduced impurities are HEPES related impurities. In certain aspects, methods and media improve protein titer, cell growth, and/or viable cell density.
