Creative Biogene ensures high-quality AAV particles by optimizing and standardizing production protocols and performing stringent quality control (QC). The specific QC experiments performed vary between AAV particle lots.
Endotoxin Endotoxins, primarily derived from Gram-negative bacteria, can trigger adverse immune responses. Endotoxin contamination is a significant concern in the production of AAV, especially for applications in animal studies and gene therapy. Effective endotoxin quality control is essential in the development and manufacturing of AAV particles. Creative Biogene utilizes rigorous endotoxin detection methods to monitor the endotoxin level in our produced AAV particles to ensure regulatory compliance.
Purity AAV purity is critical for ensuring the safety and efficacy of AAV-based applications.AAV capsids are composed of three main protein components, known as viral proteins: VP1, VP2, and VP3. These proteins play a critical role in the structure and functionality of the AAV capsid. Monitoring the VP1, VP2, and VP3 content in AAV preparations is essential for quality control in AAV production. Our AAV particles are tested for showing three clear bands of VP1, VP2 VP3 by SDS-PAGE.
Sterility The AAV virus samples are inoculated into the cell culture medium for about 5 days to detect bacterial and fungal growth.
Transducibility Upon requirement, Creative Biogene can perform in vitro or in vivo transduction assays to evaluate the ability of AAV to deliver genetic material into target cells or tissues, and assess gene expression and functional activities.
Empty vs. Full Capsids Based-on our proprietary AAV production and purification technology, Creative Biogene can always offer AAV particles with high ratio of full capsids. If required, we can also assess the ratio for a specifc lot of AAV particles by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) or other methods.

Syn-GCaMP6m AAV (serotype 9) is a highly efficient viral vector system specifically designed for neuronal calcium imaging. This recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) offers several key advantages, making it an ideal tool for neuroscience research. The serotype 9 capsid exhibits excellent neuronal tropism, enabling widespread transduction throughout the central nervous system with low immunogenicity. The vector carries the Syn-GCaMP6m construct, which combines a neuron-specific synapsin promoter with the GCaMP6m calcium indicator—one of the most sensitive genetically encoded calcium indicators currently available. This allows for robust and cell-type-specific expression of the calcium sensor in neurons without significant expression in glial cells.

Syn-GCaMP6m AAV (serotype 9) is widely used for monitoring neuronal activity in acute or chronic preparations under various experimental paradigms. Its primary application is in vivo calcium imaging, allowing researchers to record population-level neuronal dynamics at single-cell resolution. The high sensitivity and fast kinetics of GCaMP6m make it particularly suitable for detecting sparse action potentials and tracking rapid neural circuit dynamics. Common uses include studying sensory processing, motor control, decision-making, learning, and memory in awake, behaving animals. When combined with miniature microscopes or fiber photometry systems, this vector allows for long-term longitudinal imaging of the same neuronal population. The neuron-specific expression pattern avoids confounding signals from glial cells, providing clearer functional readouts. Furthermore, this tool can be combined with optogenetic techniques for all-optical manipulation of neural circuits or with other viral tracers for comprehensive circuit mapping.
