Adeno-X™ 293 Cell Line

The Adeno-X 293 Cell Line is a low-passage transformed human embryonic kidney cell line for the production of adenovirus stocks. Adenovirus stocks can be produced by either transfecting this cell line with a linearized adenoviral vector (such as the linear vectors supplied with any Adeno-X System 3) or infecting with a viable adenovirus seed stock. The slower growth rate exhibited by this line reduces cell death due to overconfluence, and therefore facilitates more efficient rescue and amplification. These cells also possess strong adherence and are highly transfectable.
