Minipool Cell Line
Overview
A minipool cell line development is a collection of cells derived from a single transfection event and then divided into numerous small populations (mini-pools) in 96-well plates. This approach allows for the efficient screening of a large number of cells to identify high-producing clones before single-cell cloning, accelerating the overall cell line development process.
The mini-pool approach offers several advantages:
-
Faster identification of high-producing clones by screening a larger number of mini-pools, the chances of finding a high producer are increased.
-
Reduced time to reach early production material: Mini-pools can be used to generate material for toxicology studies and early clinical trials, potentially shortening the overall development timeline.
-
Early assessment of product quality: Analyzing the product produced by mini-pools can provide insights into the quality attributes of the final product.
At Bon Opus, we provide expert guidance and reliable services to help you develop high-quality, productive, and stable cell lines tailored to your research or bioproduction needs.
