Immortalized Human Retinal Astrocytes

Description Immortalized Human Retinal Astrocytes (IM-HRA) have been developed by immortalizing primary human retinal astrocytes with SV40 Large T antigen. The Immortalized cells were controlled passaging side by side with the primary cells: Primary cells go into senescence after the 4th passage; the SV40‐tranduced cells go beyond 30 passages. Each vial of these astrocytes contains more than 1 million viable cells. We also offer optimized medium and reagents for the growth of IM-HRA which are quality tested together and guaranteed to give maximum performance as a global solution for in vitro IM-HRA culture.
