Cell Line and Biological Materials Testing
Symposium - La Jolla, CA
IDEXX RADIL™ Bioresearch Seminars on tour: Experts coming to California and Chicago research communities
COLUMBIA, Missouri July 10, 2012—IDEXX RADIL™ announces three upcoming symposiums and lunch discussions for the bioresearch community.
Two teams of internationally recognized scientists from IDEXX RADILTM , Drs. Matthew H. Myles and Beth Bauer, will give presentations about how to protect the integrity of cell lines and animal research in order to answer such important questions as:
“Are my cell lines contaminated?”
“How do I ensure and protect the integrity of my research?”
“Is there a better way to monitor the health of my research animal colony?”
Assessing the genetic integrity of cell lines to ensure validity of research findings : Studies revealed that 15-30% of all cell lines used in research are cross-contaminated or misidentified. Use of these contaminated cell lines results in erroneous research findings and wasted research time and money. This talk will explain the methods recommended by an expert panel for detection of genetic contamination of cell lines.
Tuesday July 17, 2012 (9:30 am – 3 pm)
The Scripps Research Institute, Molecular Biology Building, La Jolla, CA
