Product Overview
Description
RFP-Human Lung Airway Smooth Muscle Cells are genetically modified human airway smooth muscle cells that stably express Red Fluorescent Protein (RFP). These cells are derived from normal human bronchial or lung airway smooth muscle tissue and are engineered to emit a bright red fluorescence under appropriate excitation light.
They are widely used as a live-cell tracking and imaging model to study airway physiology, contraction behavior, and cellular interactions in real time.
Guarantee expansion for a minimum of 2-5 population doublings.
IMPORTANT: Quality warranty requires use of NeoBioPharma media. Biohazardous material despite negative pathogen testing. Quality claims must be reported within 1 month.
