HEK293 cells are a dominant platform for cell and gene therapy production because they are highly effective at producing large amounts of recombinant viral vectors. However, it is critical to remove trace host cell contamination from therapeutic products to avoid endangering patients. To meet rigorous regulatory guidelines, biopharmaceutical manufacturers need a HEK293 detection method that delivers high-quality, quantitative data with a simple, reliable workflow. This white paper discusses the transition from quantitative PCR (qPCR) to Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR™) for…
