Cell Culture

With decades of experience in mammalian and insect cell culture for antibody and protein production, we can optimize even the most challenging protocols for both adherent and suspension cell lines.

When you partner with Rockland, you get an inventive team dedicated to solving complex problems. We can build a reliable methodology from scratch or alter individual culture parameters for small or large scales exceeding 100 liters—and we’ll facilitate transfer to your choice of GMP facility, if needed, to streamline development.

Cell Types We Work With

We specialize in mammalian and insect cells and have the capabilities of optimizing adherent, suspension, and biphasic cultures at small and large scales—from less than a liter to over 100 liters.

We routinely use T-Flasks, roller bottles, and stir tanks to propagate cells. Hollow fiber and CELLine flasks are also used to enhance small-scale bio-production for antibody and protein generation.

There is no limitation to the type of mammalian or insect cell line we are capable of working with, but here are a few examples:

Mammalian Insect
HEK 293 Sf9
CHO Sf21
Vero High-five
Fibroblasts  
Stem Cells  
Hybridomas  
Avian Cells
