Introduction

BioMediTech Virus Production facility is devoted to small and medium scale virus production. Facility users will benefit from a secure BSL2+ or BSL3 environment generate and propagate retroviruses, lentiviruses as well as Sendai Viruses and to maintain transduced cells.  Our technicians and virus specialist will help you with the experimental design and practical training required for your experiments. They will also organize systematic control for the presence of virus in your culture media and deliver certificates of quality for your “virus free” clones and cell lines.

Tampere University users and associates are allowed to use the facility (see the Prices tab) on their own, provided they master virus production, received the adequate training and have agreed our specific guidelines about virus handling (see the Resources tab).

Assistance and training from our technical personal will be offered to researchers from the Tampere University and associates (call the contact person).
