Abstract: Improved determination of a trigger time. For this purpose, an input signal is provided to multiple low pass filters having different bandwidths. A trigger event is detected in each of the low pass filtered signals and a corresponding trigger time is determined. The trigger time which is determined based on valid trigger detection and provided by the low pass filter with the highest bandwidth is used for further analysis.

Abstract: A method for producing a protein of interest on a manufacturing scale is based on integration, by homologous recombination, of the DNA encoding the protein of interest into a bacterial cell's genome at a pre-selected site. The manufacturing scale production of recombinant proteins is in the fed-batch mode, semi-continuous or in a chemostat.
