Introducing the Cytion brand



Cytion Transition



Starting November 23, 2023, CLS Cell Lines Service GmbH will operate under the brand name Cytion.

Our company name stays the same. Cytion is a registered brand of CLS Cell Lines Service GmbH.

CLS Cell Lines Service GmbH has established a US subsidiary, Cell Lines Service LLC, also known as Cytion (DBA), to enhance our service to the US market, commencing operations on 01.01.2024.

CLS fuels scientific discovery and commercial innovation with premium cell lines and primary cells, Advancing Research – Cell by Cell. As a dedicated partner, Cytion will continue offering technologies and services globally that support biotechnology, life sciences and all related industries.

We are committed to transparently communicating changes and will keep this page updated with the latest developments. Our communication efforts are extended through all relevant channels to ensure you are informed about these new changes.

  • Product Names
  • Product Item/Code Numbers
