Studies of protective properties of pluronic and other agents on the hybridoma cell culture.
The potential toxicity and optimal concentrations of different protective agents such as pluronic F-68, methylcellulose (MC), CMC, and GPE on the in vitro growth of murine hybridoma 2F7 cells that secrete monoclonal antibody against small-cell lung cancer were studied. The effect on the rate of glucose utilization of adding protective agents was investigated. The protective effects of different concentrations of the protective agents at high agitation speed were also observed. It showed that 0.05% to 0.10% (w/v) of pluronic F-68 and 0.10% to 0.20% (w/v) of MC could protect hybridoma cells from shear stress at high agitation speed. Adding pluronic F-68 could increase glucose utilization rate, but increased the ammonia production rate. Although CMC did not affect 2F7 cell growth at a concentration less than 0.10% (w/v), it exhibited no protective property. GPE could lyze hybridoma cells. In a 1.5-L CelliGen bioreactor, when the pluronic F-68 concentration was 0.10% (w/v) in the medium and agitation speed was 70 r/min, the hybridoma cells could grow normally.
