Description
MDCK II - Madin-Darby canine kidney- cell line is a subclone derived from the heterogenous parent line - MDCK MDCK II cells, which predominate in later passages from MDCK, are reported to display electrical resistance of 100 ohm/cm². This strain is thought to be derived from the distal tubule or collecting duct of the nephron. The cell line can be used as an experimental model to study the generation and maintenance of cell surface polarity in epithelial cells. Mycoplasma eradicated using Boehringer method prior to deposit at Glow Biologics.
