Short terminal repeat (STR) Analysis
Short terminal repeat (STR) Analysis STR analysis is critical for verifying the identity of human cell lines, ensuring uniqueness of the cell line and detecting laboratory errors such as misidentification and cross-contamination of lines. An STR profile should be made for all newly derived cell lines. This allows for a periodic check of the STR profiles against the original baseline profile to ensure the continued integrity of the cells and your experimental data.
