CHO Cells
Chinese hamster ovary cells are derived from the ovary of a small rodent called the Chinese hamster. They are very similar to the human cell system, therefore CHO cells are used in biological and medical research. CHO cells are a very good choice for recombinant antibody production services since they enable high quality production and high yield. Find here everything about cho cells and cell culture in general.
