They model more efficient and economical production in upstream and downstream processes. Continuous or single-pass (SP) tangential flow filtration (TFF) and particularly diafiltration (buffer exchange) are key applications needed in downstream processing. This work presents a novel flat sheet membrane cassette for TFF diafiltration with optional simultaneous ultrafiltration (concentration). It enables effective buffer exchange of feed streams in a single-pass, without dilution and with reduced shear stress to the valuable product. Contaminants such as salts, media components, or any small molecules smaller than the respective membrane cut-off are continuously removed while the needed buffer volume is comparable to conventional diafiltration processes with recirculation. The flat-sheet membrane cassette design resembles classic TFF cassettes and can therefore be scaled up and down and handled analogously. In addition, the design allows for a closed configuration, suitable for aseptic or bioburden-controlled conditions. To introduce the buffer, only one additional external connection port is required. This allows continuous diafiltration without significant increase in operator or process control complexity. This work presents ultrafiltration and diafiltration application data using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a model protein and real antibodies processed with an automated lab-scale process system for reproducible data collection. The process performance was evaluated based on buffer exchange efficiency, transmembrane pressure (TMP) and permeate flux rates under varying process parameters, namely feed protein concentration, feed flow rate and diafiltration volumes. Buffer consumptions similar to conventional recirculation diafiltration have been observed with even reduced buffer consumptions at diafiltration volumes below 3. Buffer exchange values ranged over a broad range depending on the process parameters while relevant settings achieved a ~97 to >99% buffer exchange at, for example, 3, 5 or 7 diafiltration volumes at relatively low TMP between 50 and 350 mbar using both BSA and mAb. Typical permeability values and feed flow rates ranged from 10 to 60 L/(m<sup>2</sup>h) and 1 to 7 L/(m<sup>2</sup>h), respectively, using BSA and mAb protein concentrations from ~3 to 80 g/L and were significantly depending on the set process parameters. The data demonstrates how this new SPTFF concept can contribute to intensified and continuous biomanufacturing.</p>","PeriodicalId":8856,"journal":{"name":"Biotechnology Progress","volume":" ","pages":"e88501"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148148313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we investigate two cell retention technologies for the development of lab-scale <i>Komagataella phaffii</i> continuous processes. An acoustic-based process (AP) and a membrane-based process (MP) were developed using an acoustic cell separator (ACS) and a vibrating membrane filtration (VMF) device, respectively. Both systems allowed for continuous cell recycle and production of scFv13R4 antibody fragment for 8 days (AP) and 9 days (MP), without loss in productivity, while maintaining high viability (greater than 90%). Higher volumetric and specific productivities were achieved during the AP process, namely 50.63 ± 1.63 mg L<sup>−1</sup> day<sup>−1</sup> and 1.09 ± 0.07 mg g<sup>−1</sup> day<sup>−1</sup>, against the 32.29 ± 1.21 mg L<sup>−1</sup> day<sup>−1</sup> and 0.44 ± 0.02 mg g<sup>−1</sup> day<sup>−1</sup> afforded by the MP process.

Over the past decades, various selection markers, such as dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), glutamine synthetase (GS), and antibiotic resistance genes, have been widely utilized in the development of production cell lines. In this study, we introduce the proline selection system, an alternative metabolic selection strategy, as an efficient approach to optimize our CHO cell line development platform.

In particular, the integration of <i>PRO1</i> and <i>PRO2</i> genes into a single plasmid, in conjunction with the GS gene, significantly enhances productivity for asymmetric molecules. Optimized chain configuration across proline and GS selection plasmids can further boost protein yield. Additionally, the overexpression of regulator proteins can be leveraged with proline selection to enhance antibody production or fine-tune product quality.

The approach is demonstrated using redissolved precipitates from three CHO-derived mAbs generated by a continuous, PEG/ZnCl₂-mediated precipitation capture process. Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) fingerprinting and a percent SEC clearance (PSC) metric are developed to enable simultaneous quantification of monomer yield and impurity removal during high-throughput screening and scale-down column studies. Batch slurry plate screens are used to evaluate multimodal anion exchange (MMA) resins and an activated carbon composite adsorber under varying pH and ionic strengths, assessing partition coefficients and PSC values against both low-molecular-weight (LMW) and high-molecular-weight (HMW) impurities. Top candidates were then assessed in single-column, higher-loading flow-through experiments using the redissolved precipitates as feeds. Activated carbon emerged as a highly effective first polishing step for LMW impurity removal under acidic, low-conductivity conditions, while MMA resins provided complementary LMW and HMW clearances in a subsequent flow-through step. The two-step processes achieved overall mAb recoveries of 80%–87%, reduced HMW species from &gt;1.7% down to 1.1%, and decreased host-cell protein levels from &gt;10,000 to &lt;40 ppm for all three mAbs. SEC fingerprints showed the ability to identify orthogonal impurity removal opportunities between the two polishing materials, validating the screening methodology for a process devoid of bind-elute processing steps.
