One record for each cell line in Cellosaurus 57.0 of 22 Oct 2026, SIB's knowledge resource on cell lines. Each joins the line to the problems Cellosaurus records, such as contamination or misidentification, in its own words; its parent, children and lines from the same person; the cell banks that hold it; and the papers that used it: those Cellosaurus cites, and PubMed Central articles whose Methods give the line's RRID beside its name.
A cell line's RRID or Cellosaurus accession, such as RRID:CVCL_0030 or CVCL_0030; its name, a synonym or a misspelling Cellosaurus records; or words in its names, diseases, site or cell type. Case and punctuation do not matter. Each word matches the words that start with it.
169,026 cell lines from Cellosaurus.
