In addition to being hydrolysate-free, serum-free and of non-animal origin, the PowerCHO Advance™ Media offerings are now further enhanced to better support high-density CHO cells in suspension. For therapeutic bioprocessing applications, this medium also facilitates both downstream purification and regulatory compliance.

PowerCHO Advance™ Media allow for easy scalability, so users do not need to change to a new medium as they progress from research projects through to large-scale production. The medium is also fully chemically defined, which eases the regulatory process when transitioning from research into clinical trials and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) submission.
