Genetica DNA Laboratories, Inc. provides fast and reliable STR DNA Human Cell Line Authentication services to assist researches in detection of cell line contamination or cell line misidentification. Authentication of cell lines is very important in biomedical research. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) recommends cell line authentication for grant applications.  In addition many journals require that the research be backed up by proof of cell line authentication for publication (see http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/not-od-08-017.html). Cell line authentication is extremely important because it prevents inaccurate research, the waste of time, money, and resources. Cell line authentication is recommended at an early passage in order to establish the cell line identity, before beginning a new series of experiments, before freezing, when the cell line is not behaving as expected, every two months that the culture is actively growing, and again before publication of research. These steps are crucial to the success of the research and to the acceptance of the research in the scientific community.

Genetica DNA Laboratories is an accredited laboratory that has been in the business of human DNA profiling for over 20 years. STR DNA profiling from Genetica DNA Laboratories provides a fast, affordable, and effective way to authenticate your human cell line. Human Cell Line Authentication reports are available in only two business days from receipt of the human cell line sample! The cell line authentication report contains the STR DNA profile of the submitted cell line, including 16 independent genetic sites ( 13 CODIS loci plus D2S1338, D19S433, and amelogenin, the sex identity locus).
