The challenges of maintaining cell lines

There are a number of challenges in maintaining cells in continuous culture and harvesting as needed.

Traditionally, frozen aliquots of cells are thawed, cultured and then harvested between a specific range of passage numbers to avoid problems of changes in cell characteristics over time.

However, this approach is labor intensive and requires expensive consumables, lab space and equipment. Furthermore, it puts constrains on the timing of the assay as it must be performed within a certain time span. In addition, this technique can introduce variability as cells from successive harvests may have undergone different treatments.

Assay ready cells to the rescue

Many of the challenges of maintaining cell lines are overcome by using assay ready cells.

Such ready-to-use cells are stored as frozen uniform aliquots that can be thawed and used in an assay without pre-culturing.

Use of assay ready cells can dramatically lower batch-to-batch variability as the cells are more uniform and the time from thawing to assay is much shorter than can be achieved through traditional methods.

In addition, it offers the convenience of thaw-and-go without the problems associated with culturing the cells yourself.
