Cell Banking
A cell bank is a repository or collection of cells that are derived from a single cell source, such as a cell line or primary cell culture. These cells are carefully maintained and preserved under controlled conditions, allowing researchers and manufacturers to have a renewable and consistent source of cells for various applications, including scientific research, drug development, biotechnology, and production of therapeutic products.
The art of mastering cell bank production requires expertise, innovation and exquisite attention to detail. Designing and implementing a thorough testing plan is necessary to ensure the safety and purity of a biopharmaceutical product.
