What Is a Cell Bank?
A cell bank is a secure repository of cryopreserved cells used in research, product development, and manufacturing. It ensures consistent, renewable cell sources for your downstream applications. Accelevir’s expertise in PBMC processing and immunology allows us to offer more than storage — we provide comprehensive handling, testing, and quality control from the moment of collection.
