Fresh Human Hepatocytes (per million cells)
Hepatocytes are the most abundant type of cell in the human liver, making up an estimated 80% of the liver mass. They contain enzymes that are involved in phase I and phase II metabolism which are crucial to drug-drug interaction, metabolic stability and drug toxicity studies. The Cell Resource Core (CRC) isolates human hepatocytes from both whole livers and resected tissue. Hepatocyte isolations require extensive technical knowledge, and our many years of experience can assure the best quality primary hepatocytes on the market. These high-quality cells are ideal for metabolism, ADME-toxicity studies and many other applications. All cells are cultured at our facility as a reference to ensure the quality of the hepatocytes. Fresh human hepatocytes have a viability of >85% and are confluent in plate culture. Fresh cells can be prepared in suspension or plated to meet your requirements and can be shipped to you as soon as possible. |

Fresh Rat Hepatocytes (per/million)
Our top-of-the-line isolations and thoroughly optimized cryopreservation process ensures the highest quality cryopreserved hepatocytes. Cryopreserved rat hepatocytes are provided with characterization of post-thaw viability and cell yield, attachment and basic metabolic function (urea, albumin production). |

Fresh Mouse hepatocytes (per/million)
Mouse hepatocytes are isolated upon request with a viability of 90 ± 5%. Standard isolations are from CD1 mice and other strains can be requested. Knockout Mouse- Hepatocytes isolated from knockout mice offer an ideal in vitro platform for investigation of your target pathway. Hepatocyte quality of custom isolations is often impacted by the knockout model, which our technicians are skilled in troubleshooting and optimizing. Please inquire about setting up an optimization pilot with us to provide high-quality hepatocytes from your knockout animals. |

Cryopreservation Fee for Human Hepatocytes (per/million)
Additional charge for materials needed to Cryopreserved human hepatocytes. Cryopreserved hepatocytes offer several advantages such as vial–to–vial similarity and on-demand availability. This allows you to time your experiments at your convenience while minimizing experimental variability. Isolated from a variety of donors, our inventory offers high-quality cells provided with a characterization of post-thaw viability and cell yield, attachment and basic metabolic function (urea, albumin production). Phase I (CYP450) drug metabolizing enzyme activities can be provided on request. |
