are systems of matched components designed to maximize the growth, functionality, and maintain normal morphology for specific cell types. Backed by the same quality, service and support that you expect from ATCC, each Primary Cell Solution is comprised of: cryopreserved primary cells, optimized media and growth factor kits, and fine-tuned reagents. Use of a complete system eliminates the need for additional components to enhance attachment and proliferation.
Be a part of ATCC’s Microbiology photo contest. Submit photos of your research using any Microbiology culture. We're looking for your most beautiful, striking or scientifically exciting images that feature use of a bacteria, virus, fungi, yeast or protist that ATCC sells.
Our 1st place winner will receive an iPad3 and a framed poster of their winning photograph. The 2nd place winner will receive an iPod touch and our three 3rd place winners will each receive an iPod nano.

ATCC has established an iPS Cell Repository to accession and globally distribute highly qualified, standardized cell lines that have been reprogrammed via expression of OSKM from a diverse range of tissues and disease states. Biorepositories accelerate research progress by managing the roadblocks often associated with the distribution of biological materials.
Healthy cells are the starting material for great research. Routinely screening cell stocks for the presence of Mycoplasma is an essential step towards safeguarding your research investment. For rapid and reliable detection of Mycoplasma, trust your cells to the leaders in cellular authentication with the ATCC® Universal Mycoplasma Detection Kit.
It used to be – back in the days of early cell culture, when things were simpler – that there were cell lines (that had to be tended to and passaged), and there were primary cultures (that were finicky and...
The landscape of cell culture looks much more vibrant these days. Gone is the bland horizon of a few traditional formulations. Now that scene most resembles a multicolored tableau of options that suit a multitude of uses and cell types. While classic reagents and tools still pervade laboratory shelves, the newest products provide...
Using quality-tested, authentic cell lines is a critical first step to ensure the integrity and reproducibility of research data. This presentation reviews the major areas of concern in cell culture and the systematic accessioning process employed at ATCC
Need more physiological relevance in your work? Cell lines giving you inexplicable results? Moving to primary cell cultures could help – and it’s not as hard as you think. In fact, commercial primary cultures may give better and more consistent...
