Best answer
Correct option is (d) Off-gas analysis

The best I can explain: Off-gas analysis is done with the help of mass spectroscopy and not by the filtration process. The applications of filtration are to sterilize the media, removal of debris, plasma clarification, serum clarification, endotoxin removal, cell culture clarification, additive, and buffer sterilization.
