CHANG LIVERHUMAN LIVER HELA CHARACTERISTICS (C15-1311-222)

Cell Line Origin

Human cervix carcinoma

Cell Line Description

The cell line Chang Liver was originally thought to be derived from normal liver. The cell line has since been found to be indistinguishable from HeLa by STR PCR DNA profiling. Therefore, the cell line should be considered as derived from HeLa. Ethnicity: Black.

Application

Chang Liver (HeLa derivative) cell line has been used to study the construction and biological activity of human torque teno virus (TTV) genotype 6.
