Cryopreserved Monkey Hepatocytes
View ProductsDESCRIPTIONCHARACTERIZATION PROVIDEDRELATED PRODUCTSSAFETY, HANDLING AND STORAGEPRODUCTSDESCRIPTION
Upon thawing, cryopreserved monkey
hepatocytes remain viable (data shown below) and may be used in suspension for short-term drug
metabolism experiments (we recommend incubations no longer than four hours). When cryopreserved monkey hepatocytes are thawed, isolated and suspended under appropriate conditions, they can be used to evaluate the
in vitro metabolism of drug candidates.
Please note that XenoTech does not recommend cryopreserved monkey hepatocytes for use in culture because their attachment to cell culture dishes is unpredictable.

Policy statement concerning the safety of non-human primate-derived material
XenoTech manufactures products derived from non-human primate tissue for the purpose of xenobiotic research.
All tissue used to manufacture these products is obtained from reliable sources within the
United States, and is obtained from disease-free (asymptomatic) animals under the care of a veterinarian.
In accordance with federal (USDA) regulations, all non-human primates entering the
United States are placed in quarantine for a period of thirty days.
If an animal is infected with Ebola virus, it would die during the quarantine period, and hence, would not reside in a primate colony in the
United States.
For this reason, Ebola virus testing is not a common procedure in the
United States.
Animals are tested for Simian Herpes B virus (SBV), Simian Retrovirus (SRV), and Simian Immunodeficiency virus (SIV).
All non-human primate tissue utilized at XenoTech is obtained from animals which have tested seronegative for these viruses.Although animals are quarantined and tested for certain infectious diseases, it is not scientifically possible to guarantee that non-human primate-derived material is free of
all infectious agents and poses absolutely no health risk.
Therefore, we strongly caution all researchers who use non-human primate-derived material to treat such material as a potential biohazard, and to observe all national, regional, and local regulations governing the handling of such material.
Even if non-human primate-derived material has been tested for the presence of specific infectious agents by highly sensitive techniques, such as RT-PCR, and found to test negative, the material should still be treated as a potential biohazard.
Please note: XenoTech complies with all regulations promulgated by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). Accordingly, special permits and arrangements must be made to ship all primate products internationally. Customers in Europe and Japan should contact our distributor nearest you for information on pricing and availability.Return to TopPRODUCTS
