Cell line authentication is increasingly necessary with the wide use of cell lines in research. Human cultured cells are at risk for contamination and misidentification. Both incorrectly identified animal and human lines have been distributed repeatedly, thus invalidating years of hard work. We work with one of the largest genomic analysis companies in the US to ensure that your lines are free of contaminants that risk jeopardizing your research.
