In this study, we applied the Leap-In® transposase-mediated expression system from ATUM to generate stable CHOK1 pools for the production of four recombinant antibody reagents for IVD immunoassays. CHO cell line stability is defined by consistent antibody production over time. Three of the CHOK1 pools maintained productivity suitable for manufacturing, with high antibody yields. The productivity of the remaining CHOK1 pool decreased over time; however, derivative clones showed acceptable stability. l-glutamine had variable effects on CHOK1 cell line or stable pool stability and significantly affected antibody product titer.
