Popis

BGM (Buffalo Green Monkey) cells are a kidney epithelial cell line derived from the African green monkey, Cercopithecus aethiops. These cells are typically used in virological studies because of their susceptibility to various enteroviruses and other viral pathogens, making them a valuable tool in the study of viral infections and viral-host interactions. Their high permissiveness for viral replication is particularly useful for isolating and propagating enteroviruses, rotaviruses, and adenoviruses, among others.

In addition to their use in virology, BGM cells are employed in cytotoxicity testing and vaccine production. They provide a consistent and controlled environment for testing the effects of new drugs and potential vaccines on cellular health and viability. BGM cells are also utilized in genetic studies, particularly in understanding gene expression and signaling pathways involved in viral infection and host response mechanisms. Their robust growth and ease of handling in laboratory settings further contribute to their widespread use in biological research.

O značce

Společnost Cytion vznikla v roce 2004 v německém Heidelbergu s jasným vědeckým posláním: dodávat ověřené lidské a zvířecí buněčné linie bez kontaminace, připravené za přísně kontrolovaných laboratorních podmínek.

Postupně se vypracovala ve spolehlivou buněčnou banku, která slouží akademickým laboratořím, biotechnologickým firmám i farmaceutickým výzkumným týmům po celém světě. Klade přitom důraz na reprodukovatelnost výsledků, přísnou kontrolu kvality a dlouhodobá partnerství.
