Sub-visible particles (SVPs) in pharmaceutical products are a critical quality attribute, and therefore should be monitored during development. Although light obscuration (LO) and microscopic particle count tests are the primary pharmacopeial methods used to quantify SVPs, flow imaging methods like Micro-Flow Imaging (MFI™) appear to overcome shortcomings of LO such as limited sensitivity concerning smaller translucent SVPs in the size range < 10 µm. Nowadays, MFI™ is routinely utilized during development of biologicals.

Functional genomics represent a valuable approach to improve culture performance of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines for biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Recent advances in applied microRNA (miRNAs) research suggest that these small non-coding RNAs are critical for the regulation of cell phenotypes in CHO cells. However, the notion that individual miRNAs usually control the expression of hundreds of different genes makes miRNA target identification highly complex.
