VERO Cell Line:
Continuous mammalian cell lines are important tools in life science research and are commonly used for the various drug production. The Vero epithelial cell line was derived from an African green monkey kidney cells in 1962 by Yasamura and Kawakita. The cell line was named as “Vera reno” translates to “green kidney.” Vero cells are susceptible to an array of viruses and have been used to manufacture human vaccines. Vero cells are continuous, aneuploids, and resistant to senescence. Vero cells have also been used to screen for toxins such as E. Coli. Vero cells can also serve as a virus or eukaryotic parasite host. Because of these characteristics, Vero cells are popular in virology, toxicology and bacteriology fields. Vero cells also make an excellent biomedical transfection host for therapeutic evaluations. Altogen Biosystems offers a Vero-optimized transfection kit formulated for maximum Vero transfection efficiency:
