Abstract

Human erythropoietin (EPO)-producing recombinant BHK cells were cultured in culture medium containing microcarriers, and then microcarriers attached with cells were replenished in the hollow fiber culture cassette. By culture for 14 days, it was possible to produce 450 μg of the recombinant EPO, which corresponded to over two-fold of the recombinant EPO production by control hollow fiber culture without microcarriers.
