HEK293 / HEK293T / HEK293F
Compatible with adhesion, suspension and adapted HEK293 variants — lipofection and PEI-based transfection protocols supported.
ATMP & Regulatory Ready
Aligned with EMA ATMP Reg EC 1394/2007, FDA 21 CFR Part 1271, ICH Q5A/Q5D and EU GMP Annex 2 (2023) requirements.
Designed For: ATMP Manufacturers & Viral Vector CDMOs
SeamlessBio supplies HEK293 transfection and viral vector media to two primary customer groups: ATMP manufacturers (gene therapies, cell & gene therapy products, VLP-based vaccines) and viral vector CDMOs producing AAV, lentiviral and adenoviral vectors for clinical or commercial supply.
For ATMPs under EMA classification (EC 1394/2007) and biologics under FDA oversight, the supply chain documentation expectations are high — full traceability, lot-to-lot consistency, and GMP-certified manufacturing. CelluPro's ISO 13485 / EXCiPACT™ manufacturing standard meets these requirements from the raw material side.
SeamlessBio covers EU and UK supply, with batch reservation available for production campaigns.
