Cell lines from ATCC
Human Cells
ATCC cultures are critical to the discovery, invention, and development of new, improved and emerging scientific advances.
Animal Cells
The use of animal cell cultures as models of human disease is an integral part of scientific research.
Human Primary Cells
Get ATCC quality primary cells, along with the media, reagents, and information to support successful primary cell culture.
hTERT-Immortalized Cells
Telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) immortalized primary cells combine the in vivo nature of primary cells with a cell line's ability to survive continuously in vitro.
Cell media & sera
Cell Growth Media
Grow your cells like the pros and simplify your workflow by using the media trusted to cultivate ATCC’s cell lines. Our media is expertly designed to support the recovery, expansion, cryopreservation, and distribution of your cell lines, primary cells, and advanced cell models.
High-quality Sera
Sera contain a variety of undefined growth factors, cytokines, and proteins needed to satisfy the specific metabolic requirements of cultured cells. At ATCC, we optimize our high-performance sera to expand and preserve thousands of different cell lines.
Advanced cancer models
Next-Generation Cancer Models
ATCC collaborated with the Human Cancer Models Initiative (HCMI) to offer next-generation 2-D and 3-D patient-derived models, including organoids.
Cancer & Normal Matched Pairs
ATCC offers cell line pairs derived from the same donor to compare your experiment results from tumor cell lines to their normal cells.
Reporter-labeled Cells
These cells either constitutively or inducibly express reporter genes such as GFP or luciferase. Dual labeled cell lines are also available.
Tumor Cell Panels
ATCC has designed tumor cell panels based on the tissue of tumor origin, each annotated with details regarding known mutations.
