  1. Cell Authentication and Validation

  2. A Case of Mistaken Identity: Cell culture cross contamination is a long standing problem in laboratories worldwide

  3. ‘Major trials of drugs in doubt’ (BBC news 2010)

  4. A case of mistaken identity: An Example:

  5. An Example:

  6. An Example: £62K!!

  7. A Call for Action: Eradication of Cross Contaminated Cell Lines: Roland M Nardone • ‘1. It is proposed that government and private funding agencies be prevailed upon to require cell line authentication as a condition for the award of grant and contract funds. • 2. It is also proposed that key scientific journals be prevailed upon to require cell line authentication as a condition for publication.’

  8. 9. Cell Line Authentication. The authentication of cell lines is considered an important part of the preliminary data described in any grant application. Applicants should also ensure that all cell lines to be used during the proposed research are adequately authenticated

  11. Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) Panel Cell Validation AGCAGGACA AGCATGCCA GGATTGCTA HeLa cells MCF7 cells U251 cells

  12. Cell check recommendations • at the commencement of a project and then at six monthly periods to ensure cells remain uncontaminated. • to ensure batch to batch identity • following long term storage and genetic manipulation of cultured cells • in multi user laboratories • for cells obtained from inter laboratory exchange • for newly generated cell lines • following ‘cell rescue’ cell sorting etc

  17. Pharmaceutical R & D Biomanufacturing – 70% of companies contacted express an interest Avecia, Eden Biodesign ‘add to quality assurance in bioproduction and ….it would be an advantage that they could offer and pass on to their customers.’ Academic research institutes - interest in investigating batch to batch variation and in getting papers published and funding released Cell suppliers The market

  18. Experience, Expertise and reputation • 10 years experience • Over 60 collaborators worldwide • 72 published papers and 3 book chapters • coordinated a 5 year European Union Programme involving 41 Partner laboratories in 13 countries.

  19. Independent validation • Working to ISO accredited procedures • A contracted or flexible bespoke services
