Philadelphia, July 10 - Crucell NV and technology partner DSM Biologics announced Monday that Invitrogen, a leading life sciences products and services provider, will become the first company to enter the partnership's PER.C6 licensing business vendor network for monoclonal antibodies and recombinant proteins.

Through its PD-Direct services, Invitrogen has extensive experience with the PER.C6 technology and will offer PER.C6 licensees the benefit of expertise developed as a leader in clone generation services, according to a company news release.

Invitrogen said it will continue to develop and optimize clone generation solutions specifically tailored to the PER.C6 human cell line.

It will consist of carefully selected leading tool and service providers offering, for example, PER.C6 clone generation programs, medium, bioreactor and other production equipment and devices, and process development services.

Vendors will ensure ongoing innovation of unique processes and products that enhance the performance of the PER.C6 technology platform, officials said.

Furthermore, they will use their marketing and sales efforts to offer PER.C6-related goods and services, thereby increasing the exposure of the PER.C6 brand worldwide.
