Abstract:

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are considered as the most commonly used host for industrial manufacturing of therapeutic proteins. The aim of this study was to evaluate the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of hygromycin B in both CHO-DG44 and CHO-S cells since hygromycin B resistance cassette can be used for future selection of gene expression in CHO cells. The minimum inhibitory concentration was determined by the microdilution method. In this test, CHO cells were subjected to a range of hygromycin B concentrations for a defined period of time. Moreover, CHO cells were scaled up with no addition of fresh culture medium during the growth–culture cycle to investigate their growth. The MIC for hygromycin B in CHO-DG44 cells was 75 μg/ml and for CHO-S cells was 50 μg/ml. Thus, it has been indicated that CHO DG44 cell line could be more effective for stable cell line development than CHO-S cell line.

Determination of antibiotic susceptibility and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the Propionibacterium acnes to the prevalent antibiotics in the treatment of Acne vulgaris

ABSTRACTPropionibacterium acnes is propounded as one of the significant factors in occurrence of acne. Today, due to development of the antibiotic resistance, most of the acne treatments are faced with failure. In order to determine the antibiotic resistance of the P.acnes strains isolated from the patients with acne, this research has been carried out. 70 samples collected using microbial cult...

Determination of Minimum Inhibitory Concentration of Liposomes: A Novel Method

The rate of development of antibiotic resistance by microorganisms is pretty high compared to the discovery of new antibiotics. Therefore new formulations have come up in order to avoid resistance, either through increasing the availability or penetration of the already existing drugs(Arias, 2013). Delivery of antimicrobials or other compounds in the form of liposome is gaining more attention (...
