Residual DNA Quantification Kit- Vero

Vero cells, a lineage established from the kidneys of African green monkeys, are widely used in vaccine production as well as virology research due to their susceptibility to infection by a wide range of viruses. These cells are advantageous in that they are adherent, have minimal aggregation, and grow to high cell densities, making them an ideal substrate for the production of viral vaccines, including poliovirus and influenza vaccines. However, one of the challenges of using Vero cells is the risk of residual host cell DNA being carried over into the final product.

As biopharmaceuticals often involve the use of living cells for production, it is highly desirable to ensure that any residual DNA in these host cells is reduced to acceptable levels to ensure the safety and efficacy of the final product. The Residual DNA Quantification Kit - Vero is designed to provide a specific, sensitive, and accurate method to detect and quantify low levels of Vero cell-derived DNA in a variety of biological products. The kit typically employs quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology, which is well suited due to its specificity and sensitivity.
