Description
Keratinocytes are the primary type of cell found in the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. Keratinocytes represent the major cell type of the epidermis, making up about 90% of the cells. They originate in the stratum basale and undergo gradual differentiation including profound morphological changes during their shift to the stratum corneum. In the stratum corneum, the final barrier layer of the skin, keratinocytes are found as nucleus-free, flat, and highly keratinized squamous cells.
Human Keratinocytes - adult (HKs-a) from Creative Bioarray are isolated from the Dermis of adult skin. The cells are cryopreserved at Passage 2 and delivered frozen. Each vial contains at least 0.5 *10^6 cells. HKs-a are negative for HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi. Human Keratinocytes - adult (HKs-a) are guaranteed to at 15 population doublings under the conditions provided by Creative Bioarray. Repeated freezing and thawing of cells is not recommended.
