Is there anybody who uses HEp 2 cell line and can spare some?

09 September 2015 1 4K Report

I need some of these cells ASAP. I will really appreciate it. I had the bought them but some how they are contaminated within a week. we used antibiotic free MEM. was that a mistake.......difficult to buy now. I am in USA. So anybody in USA -if you have it, can you send me some. Please contact me at [email protected].
