AGL has been providing cell characterization services to companies and research institutes in the areas of medicine, pharmaceuticals, tissue engineering and vaccine production for over 15 years.  We have broad experience in banded chromosome analysis and isoenzyme analysis for a wide variety of species, including the analysis of established cell lines.

We can verify the species identity of your cell line, genetically monitor your cell line over time in culture, and determine genetic stability of your cell line.  These services are provided by isoenzyme and/or cytogenetic analyses (see below).  Our standard "Complete Cell Characterization Service" includes both cytogenetic analysis and isoenzyme analysis. Individual isoenzyme or cytogenetic analysis is also available, and all services can be customized to your application.

AGL has a proven track record providing cell characterization services in compliance with the Food and Drug Administration's Good Laboratory Practice Regulations. (Part 58 Title 21 CFR)
