FAQs Customer Reviews Related Products

How is batch-to-batch consistency maintained?

We control donor selection by using pigs from standardized sources and applying strict inclusion criteria for age and health status. All animals are housed under controlled conditions to minimize confounding environmental factors. Following isolation, each batch is evaluated for baseline viability, morphology, and response to key stimuli.

What are the recommended culture conditions for keeping these porcine macrophages healthy and functional?

The macrophages are typically maintained in a high-quality basal medium compatible with porcine cells, supplemented with fetal bovine serum and standard antibiotics. We provide detailed guidance on seeding density, medium changes, and recommended rest periods post-thaw to maximize recovery.

Do you provide mycoplasma and sterility testing results for these porcine macrophages?

Yes, each batch of porcine bone marrow macrophages undergoes comprehensive quality control, including mycoplasma testing, sterility testing for bacterial and fungal contaminants, and endotoxin assessment.

These porcine macrophages provided a very reliable ex vivo platform
The cells supported viral replication and showed clear innate immune responses. Their behavior matched well with what we observed in vivo, which made data interpretation more straightforward. Overall, they significantly improved the relevance of our in vitro models.
The thawing and handling protocol was clear and practical
After a short recovery period, the cells attached well and displayed classic macrophage morphology. We were impressed by the overall viability and the low background noise in unstimulated conditions. This made it easier to detect specific responses to infection or stimulation.
We appreciated having access to high-quality porcine macrophages
Communication with the supplier was smooth, and they responded quickly to our technical questions.
