The Lifeline Guarantee
Lifeline’s rigorous quality control ensures sterility and performance to standardized testing criteria. If Lifeline’s products do not meet your expectations or our posted performance and quality standards, we will replace them at no charge or provide a full refund. Upon request, CellSystems will provide lot-specific QC test results, material safety data sheets and certificates of analysis. See complete guarantee/warranty statement at cellsystems.biz or contact your CellSystems representative for more information. Safety Statement Lifeline’s HPrEC are cryopreserved as secondary cells* to ensure the highest viability and plating efficiency. Our HPrEC are quality tested in ProstaLife Medium to ensure optimal serum-free growth over a period of at least 15 population doublings at rates equal to or greater than serum-supplemented media. Lifeline’s HPrEC are not exposed to antimicrobials or phenol red when cultured in ProstaLife medium; an advantage since these supplements can cause cell stress and “masking effects” that may negatively impact experimental results. Lifeline offers these traditional supplements; however they are not needed, or recommended, to achieve optimal cell performance in most research applications.

HPrEC are cryopreserved as secondary cells, e.g. cells are isolated from human prostate and expanded twice in culture vessels before being harvested for cryopreservation.
