    Notes: Abstract The effects of linoleic acid and bovine serum albumin on hybridoma cell growth and antibody production were investigated. In dish cultivation, linoleic acid on its own promoted cell growth when used at concentrations below 50 mg L−1, but strongly inhibited growth at a concentration of 100 mg L−1 on more. However, linoleic acid bound to bovine serum albumin did not inhibit cell growth, even at a concentration as high as 100 mg L−1. Also, linoleic acid did not affect the specific antibody production rate, with or without bovine serum albumin. In order to elucidate the enhancement of antibody production by bovine serum albumin, fractions were prepared by ultrafiltration (98% molecular weight cut-offs, 50,000 and 17,000) and the effects of the fractionation on antibody production were studied in batch cultivation. The high-molecular-weight fraction (≧50,000) promoted antibody production whereas the low-molecular-weight fraction (≦17,000) inhibited it. In continuous cultivation, the high-molecular-weight fraction was also found to enhance antibody production.

    Notes: The effects of the high-molecular-weight growth factors, transferrin and bovine serum albumin (BSA), on antibody production were analyzed quantitatively in continuous hollow-fiber cultivation over a period of 60 days. Transferrin enhanced cell growth but had no significant effect on the specific antibody production rate, whereas BSA significantly enhanced antibody production. The antibody production rate was increased 4- and 14-fold respectively by feeding BSA at 2 and 5 g L-1 into the EC side of the system (the side connected to the cell-containing outer part of the hollow-fiber unit) compared with the production achieved without BSA. Addition of 5 g L1 BSA into the IC side of the system (the side connected to the inner part of the hollow-fiber unit) resulted in a 2.5-fold increase in the antibody production rate. The effect of BSA was also analyzed using the perfusion culture system with a separation unit. When fresh medium containing either 2 or 5 g L-1 BSA was fed into the reactor, both the specific growth rate and specific death rate increased, while the specific antibody production rate was increased 2- and 25-fold, respectively, by feeding BSA at these two concentrations compared with no addition. Comparing the two systems, the increase in the antibody production rate achieved with the hollow-fiber system was threefold greater than that in the perfusion culture system with the same concentration of BSA feeding. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: To investigate the effects of lactate on cell growth and antibody production, a new method of maintaining the lactate concentration constant in a fed-batch culture is described. When the pH was initially adjusted by sodium hydroxide, the specific growth rate decreased and specific death rate increased with an increase of lactate concentration. To investigate whether the inhibition was due to the lactate concentration itself or to the osmotic pressure, the effect of the osmotic pressure adjusted by sodium chloride was compared with that of sodium lactate. When the osmotic pressure was adjusted to same condition as that of sodium lactate using sodium chloride, the specific growth data showed the same degree of growth inhibition. It was thus evident that the inhibition to cell growth was mainly due to osmotic pressure while lactate production from glucose was found to be inhibited by the lactate itself compared with sodium chloride. The specific antibody production rate had a maximum value within a certain range of lactate concentration. Moreover, specific antibody production rate had a unified relationship with the kinetic parameter μ, in spite of the different causes of inhibition by lithium lactate and sodium lactate. A certain “trade-off” relationship between growth and antibody production existed at higher growth rates.
