Diagnostic Hybrids MixedCells™ and D3® Fluorescent Staining Kits
As part of its “totally tubeless” cell culture offering, Diagnostic HYBRIDS provides MixedCells – co-cultivated cell lines in the same shell vial or plate well, optimized for viral culture. These mixed cell substrates allow laboratories to isolate multiple viruses simultaneously, making it easier to detect co-infections in addition to the other benefits of “totally tubeless” cell cultures. MixedCells are also optimized for use with Diagnostic HYBRIDS’ patented D3 line of fluorescent staining kits for virus identification. Because these testing systems operate on the same principles, laboratory staff can easily be cross-trained to perform new tests.
