  • Publication number: 20220064591
    Abstract: A method for culturing eukaryotic cells for improved cell culture performance is provided. The method generally comprises propagating or maintaining eukaryotic cells in a defined cell culture medium; wherein the defined cell culture medium is supplemented with asparagine in an amount from about 2.6 mM to about 43.2 mM during early fed-batch cell culture and from about 2.6 mM to about 21.6 mM during late fed-batch cell culture; and maintaining said cells in said asparagine supplemented cell culture medium for at least a portion of the early fed-batch cell culture and at least a portion of the late fed-batch cell culture; wherein the performance of the cell culture is improved by the asparagine supplementation, as compared to a similar method with a lower amount of asparagine supplementation in the early and/or late fed-batch cell culture.
