cell line authentication

2. short tandem repeat str profile All those examples of misidentified cell lines continue to surface today, which has made unambiguous cell authentication become an essential step in the scientific process. In order to assisting all of our customers for their cell research, Creative Bioarray offers an accurate and reliable method for authentication of cells and cell lines, which is STR analysis service. The human genome is full of repeated DNA sequences which come in various sizes and are classified according to the length of the core repeat units, the number of contiguous repeat units, and/or the overall length of the repeat region. DNA regions with short repeat units (usually 2-6 bp in length) are called Short Tandem Repeats (STR). Creative Bioarray STR profiling is critical for verifying the identity of human cell lines, ensuring uniqueness of the cell line and detecting laboratory errors such as misidentification and cross-contamination of lines. The sensitivity and high power of discrimination makes our STR analysis an ideal choice for the various types of cell authentication.
