STR Profiling 300
To authenticate and establish the identity of new cell lines—includes contamination analysis and database cross-referencing analysis
STR300 is our comprehensive STR analysis test, and it is designed to authenticate and establish the identity of new cell lines. Our authentication analysis includes database cross-referencing against the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics’ Cellosaurus database. The Cellosaurus database itself cross-references the cell line collections at ATCC, DSMZ, JCRB, and many more. With STR300, cell lines are compared with your previously submitted cell lines.
Cell Line Genetics recommends STR300 as an initial test to establish the identity of a cell line—whether it is derived in-house or obtained from a repository or other laboratory. Continued STR analysis through either STR100 or STR300, is recommended on all cell lines in long-term culture to monitor for changes in copy number variation (CNVs), to detect culture mix-ups, and cross-contamination of lines.
