The C6/36 cell line is derived from the larvae of the Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, and possesses remarkable genomic features. Its assembly boasts an impressive contig N50 of 3.3 Mbp, the highest among mosquito assemblies, encompassing sequences from both haplotypes of its diploid genome. Demonstrating a strong propensity for propagating Dengue viruses, C6/36 cells exhibit varying degrees of cytopathic effects following infection, 
ranging from mild to extensive over several days. While these cells are non-tumorigenic in immunosuppressed mice, they do display the ability to form colonies in semisolid medium. Subculturing is typically achieved through either scraping or vigorous pipetting.
Why choose C6/36 from AcceGen?
C6/36 cells exhibit robust viability and quality, thriving when nurtured under optimal conditions by skilled operators. These cells are maintained in a sterile environment, meticulously screened to ensure absence of fungi, bacteria, and mycoplasma contaminants.

FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY
The C6/36 cell line serves as a versatile resource for detecting, amplifying, and analyzing mosquito-borne viruses like Zika, dengue, and chikungunya. Its utility extends to the replication of flaviviruses. With the C6/36 genome sequence and annotation, the cell line finds broader applications in exploring arbovirus vector interactions and developing interventions to curtail the dissemination of human diseases transmitted by mosquitoes.
