Cell Lines & Specialty Cell Culture

A brown mouse against a white background.

Cell culture is fundamental to life science research in universities, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and industry. Our comprehensive collection of cell lines includes authenticated, validated, mycoplasma-free mammalian and iPS cell lines available through our partnership with the European Collection of Authenticated Cell Cultures (ECACC), primary cells from PromoCell® and Cell Applications, Inc. (CAI), and assay-ready stem cells, including induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), neural, mesenchymal, and hematopoietic stem cells.    

Primary Cells

Primary cells are derived directly from living tissue and closely replicate the physiology of biological systems. Our collection includes blood, patient tumor xenografts, and hepatocytes essential for drug screening and ADME/Tox studies.

Mammalian Cell Lines
Primary Cells

Mammalian Cell Lines

Cell lines from human and other mammalian species are essential for modeling disease and biological systems, and are critical tools for protein, antibody, virus, and vaccine production. We offer authenticated, contaminant-free cell lines, many in partnership with ECACC.
