Immortalized versus primary cells: considerations for optimal application in cell cultures

Primary cells and immortalized cell lines each have their own benefits in biotechnology and research. Immortalized cells are known for their indefinite lifespan and are derived from a single common ancestral cell. While primary culture has a limited lifespan, they often have greater physiological relevance than their immortalized counterparts. Choosing an appropriate cell culture is paramount in ensuring optimal results for biochemical and cell-based assays. View this whitepaper to discover the advantages and challenges of primary cells and immortalized cell culture models, as well as the considerations that must be made to increase the likelihood of successful results.
