It is now more than half a century since animal cells first came
into regular use in the laboratory. Instances of laboratory
acquired infection and con tamination of therapeutic products,
derived from the use of animal cell cultures are rare. The use of
animal cells, in addition to an established role in the production
of vaccines and therapeutic proteins, has many new medical
applications including gene therapy, tissue engineering and cell
therapy. Furthermore, C;ldvances in molecular and cell biology are
enabling rapid development and application of these technologies
and the development of new and more sensitive methods, such as
nucleic acid amplification, for the characterisation of cells and
the detection of adven titious agents. However, it is clear that
there is no room for complacency in this field and the recent
expansion in the use of animal cells in the manufacture of medical
products and the development of new biological assays for
diagnostic and pharmaco-toxicological screening, underlines the
need for vigilance regarding the correct and safe use of animal
cells as substrates. This book is therefore very timely and should
prove to be a highly valuable text, finding a wider audience beyond
those with respon sibility for laboratory safety. The book guides
the reader from fundamental cell biology issues and the
establishment of new in vitro methods, through testing and
validation of cell lines and on to issues in the use of animal
cells in manufacturing processes.
