CELL LINE PRODUCTS
Eukaryotic cell lines are essential tools for the research, development, and production of biological drugs and medicines. In this context Tentamus Pharma & Med Deutschland has established a platform to generate cell lines derived from primary tissues resulting in authenticated cell lines being tested free from microbial and viral contamination.
CHIC Clone collection
Eggs from selected pathogen-free white Leghorn chickens were used as starting material for the production of epithelial chicken cell lines. Cells were isolated from the intestinal tract (intestine and cecum) of 18-day-old embryonic chickens and subsequently subjected to a specific procedure of growth factor treatment and limiting dilution cloning.
As result we succeeded in isolating more than 240 indigenous, continuously growing clones, which - according to microscopic classification - represent at least 5 different morphotypes. a number of 12 clones were further characterized with special regard to their epithelial character using biochemical and immunological methods. CHIC clone 8E11 is the most prominent representative.
Applications of the CHIC Clone cells
- Infection and inhibition (susceptibility) tests to Campylobacter and Salmonella strains
- Expression of recombinant proteins upon transfection / infection
- Production of viral particles (e.g. influenza)
