AbstractIn the era of Biopharma 4.0, process digitalization fundamentally requires accurate and timely monitoring of critical process parameters (CPPs) and quality attributes. Bioreactor systems are equipped with a variety of sensors to ensure process robustness and product quality. However, during the biphasic production of viral vectors or replication‐competent viruses for gene and cell therapies and vaccination, current monitoring techniques relying on a single working sensor can be affected by the physiological state change of the cells due to infection/transduction/transfection step required to initiate production. To address this limitation, a multisensor (MS) monitoring system, which includes dual‐wavelength fluorescence spectroscopy, dielectric signals, and a set of CPPs, such as oxygen uptake rate and pH control outputs, was employed to monitor the upstream process of adenovirus production in HEK293 cells in bioreactor. This system successfully identified characteristic responses to infection by comparing variations in these signals, and the correlation between signals and target critical variables was analyzed mechanistically and statistically. The predictive performance of several target CPPs using different multivariate data analysis (MVDA) methods on data from a single sensor/source or fused from multiple sensors were compared. An MS regression model can accurately predict viable cell density with a relative root mean squared error (rRMSE) as low as 8.3% regardless of the changes occurring over the infection phase. This is a significant improvement over the 12% rRMSE achieved with models based on a single source. The MS models also provide the best predictions for glucose, glutamine, lactate, and ammonium. These results demonstrate the potential of using MVDA on MS systems as a real‐time monitoring approach for biphasic bioproduction processes. Yet, models based solely on the multiplicity and timing of infection outperformed both single‐sensor and MS models, emphasizing the need for a deeper mechanistic understanding in virus production prediction.
