Cell Bank Characterization
Regulatory approval of recombinant products requires rigorous analysis to demonstrate the culture is pure, the cells are stable and the recombinant DNA gene expression system is intact. Genetic stability testing of cell banks is a key component in the analysis required to maintain quality assurance of a production cell line. Beckman Coulter Genomics offers a broad array of services in support of Genetic Stability Testing of cell banks producing Recombinant Proteins and Monoclonal Antibodies.
