摘要

The selection of high-performing cell lines is crucial for biopharmaceutical production but is often time-consuming and labor-intensive. We investigated label-free multimodal nonlinear optical microscopy for non-perturbative profiling of biopharmaceutical cell lines based on their intrinsic molecular contrast. Employing simultaneous label-free autofluorescence multiharmonic (SLAM) microscopy with fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), we characterized Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines at early passages (0–2). A machine learning (ML)-assisted analysis pipeline leveraged high-dimensional information to classify single cells into their respective lines. Remarkably, the monoclonal cell line classifiers achieved balanced accuracies exceeding 96.8% as early as passage 2. Correlation features and FLIM modality played pivotal roles in early classification. This integrated optical bioimaging and machine learning approach presents a promising solution to expedite cell line selection process while ensuring identification of high-performing biopharmaceutical cell lines. The techniques have potential for broader single-cell characterization applications in stem cell research, immunology, cancer biology and beyond.
