Rapid, simultaneous monitoring of multiple components in mammalian cell culture with NIR spectroscopy

The use of cellular physiology for the production of target molecules has been practised for centuries with early examples being the production of wine and beer via fermentation of yeast. Single-celled organisms (e.g., bacteria and yeast) and multi-celled organisms (plant or animal) can be harnessed to successfully produce otherwise chemically complex or low-yield materials. In this application note from Thermo Fisher Scientific, explore how Fourier transform Near-infrared (FT-NIR) analysis is used as an online multicomponent analytical tool for the bioprocessing industry.
