Detecting Mycoplasma contamination in your cell culture with confidence
28 Jun 2023Cell cultures are an invaluable tool in biopharmaceutical laboratories. However, they are vulnerable to contaminants, such as bacteria, yeasts, molds, viruses, and mycoplasma. Some contaminants, such as mycoplasma, are harder to detect than others. This infographic from Bio-Rad explores mycoplasma contamination in cell cultures and the best technologies for detection.
