Course Description:
This course provides practical advice for the application of Design of Experiment (DoE) as a tool in culture media development. Cell culture media is comprised of over 50 active ingredients that can have strong interactions making the ratios of component concentrations to each other a critical aspect of optimization. DoE offers the ability to effectively develop culture media in few experiments that allows achievement of high performance in short timeframes.
Learning Objectives:
Introduction to Design of Experiment
Types of DoE Experiments for Media Development
Importance of Design Space for DoE Success
Project Management to Maximize Effectiveness of DoE
Media Development using DoE – A Case Study
Who Should Attend:
Media Development Scientists
Process Development Engineers
Process Development Managers and Supervisors
