A solution for shipping primary human proximal tubule cell monolayers between laboratories

aProximate™ is a highly sophisticated, near-physiological proximal tubule cell (PTC) model that is a proven market-leader in the study of transporters and drug-drug interactions.

One issue with primary cell cultures is the short time window they remain differentiated and functional, which has hindered the sharing of primary cell models between laboratories.

To overcome this and ship cells globally in an assay-ready format, a safe and reliable short-term preservation method was developed and internally validated, pausing cells at hypothermic temperatures for up to 5 days.
