Immortalized Human Chondrocytes

Description Immortalized Human Chondrocytes (IM-HC) were developed by immortalizing primary human articular chondrocytes with SV40 Large T antigen. Immortalized cells were controlled passaging side by side with the primary cells. Primary cells go into senescence after the 3rd passage while the SV40‐tranduced cells go beyond 30 passages. Each vial of Immortalized chondrocytes contains more than 1 million viable cells. We also offer optimized medium and reagents for the growth of IM-HC which are quality tested together and guaranteed to give maximum performance as a global solution for in vitro IM-HC culture.
