Some stem cell lines may contain an endogenous virus or can be contaminated with exogenous viruses (even of animal origin) and may secrete viral particles or express viral antigens on their surface. علاوة على ذلك, certain biotechnological products (على سبيل المثال. bovine fetal serum, murine feeder cells) may contain prion particles. Viral and prion اقرأ المزيد

Regarding quality control and control of contaminations. It is very important question. biotechnology laboratory works in sterile conditions (GMP and GLP certifications). At the moment, panel of tests to detect serious pathogens like endogenous viruses, exogenous viruses and prions. This panel of tests include reverse transcriptase detection as a general اقرأ المزيد
