MINNEAPOLIS, May 11, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Bio-Techne
Corporation (NASDAQ:TECH) today announced the release of the
GMP Cloudz™ Human T Cell Activation Kit. This is the first
GMP-grade kit within the Cloudz product line addressing the need
for robust, yet safe products within the clinical- and
commercial-scale of the Cell and Gene Therapy manufacturing
process. The kit contains Cloudz particles, which are dissolvable
microspheres conjugated to GMP Grade, in-house manufactured CD3 and
CD28 antibodies for the expansion of T cells. The GMP
Cloudz Human T Cell Activation Kit seamlessly fits within
the T cell culture platform, and the particles are easily washed
away from cells of interest. Cloudz particles can be added to
CD3+ T cells or PBMCs for efficient expansion and purity
of cells. The unique properties of the Cloudz microspheres allow
them to be readily dissolved and washed away with a GMP-Grade
Cloudz™ Release Buffer.
Cell and Gene Therapies have gained significant traction over
the last decade following the commercial success of CAR-T Cell
therapeutics and include a substantial pipeline of therapies within
clinical trials. The Cloudz product line is part of the larger cell
and gene therapy portfolio that Bio-Techne has created over the
last year that now includes several ExCellerate™ media
formulations, GMP proteins, and gene-editing platforms with
additional products in the pipeline.
"The GMP Cloudz T Cell activation kit is an important tool
within CAR-T and other immune cell therapies providing a
much-needed bead-free cell expansion platform," commented
Dave Eansor, President of
Bio-Techne's Protein Sciences Segment. "It is an exciting time
within Cell and Gene Therapy, and we are proud to be a part of this
important area of science."
The full line of Cloudz and cell and gene therapy products can
be found on the Bio-Techne Website.
