FAQ: 293LTV Cell Line
Q: How are your 293LTV cells different from HEK293T cells?
A: The 293LTV cell line is a permanent cell line derived from HEK293T and was selected to have a high lentiviral yield. This cell line is fast growing and has a firm attachment to the culture plate, which can sometimes be problematic with standard 293T cells.
