Cell Line Expansion
The expert immunologists at iQ Biosciences perform cell line expansion, harvest, and preparation to support downstream applications such as xenograft and syngeneic mouse models or irradiation studies. Following strict aseptic protocols and precise passage tracking, these services ensure high-viability, application-ready cells for preclinical research.
Our services
- Our team at iQ Biosciences is highly experienced in cell line expansion, harvest, and preparation for downstream experimental use (e.g., xenograft or syngeneic mouse models or irradiation, performed at iQ Biosciences).
- We follow strict aseptic protocols with careful cell culture passage tracking to ensure suitable cell numbers and viability for your application.
- iQ Biosciences can transfer the cells directly to your research institution to align with your study planning, either cryopreserved or fresh cell transfer (Greater San Francisco Bay Area only for fresh cells).
- All cell line expansion and creation of cell stocks is performed with high-quality, sterile reagents.

Service overview
How can iQ Biosciences help achieve your goals the smarter way?
iQ Biosciences can help alleviate the effort of cell line expansion and provide confidence in the quality of cell lines prepared for downstream experimental applications. We have years of cell culture expertise and follow strict, organized protocols to ensure sterility and efficiency of the expansion with the use of high-quality cell culture reagents and multilayer flasks, as applicable. We note the morphology, viability, and doubling time of the cell line with each passage. As a quality control measure, we can screen cultures for mycoplasma and partner with external sources to submit cultures for additional testing.
