      Cell lines that are known to be misidentified are now also hosted in the NCBI BioSample database at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biosample/.

      The list of known misidentified cell lines continues to be updated by ICLAC and has a dedicated webpage at http://iclac.org/databases/cross-contaminations/.

      Many thanks to Tanya Barrett and NCBI staff for their work in making the data more widely accessible.

      Neil, in answer to your question, we have been distributing our list of misidentified cell lines since 2009. Initially we did not have a dedicated website for distribution and I was concerned about the security of the data when people could not come back to check the data against a primary source. We now have a website up and running as a primary distribution point so an open source approach is much more feasible.

      The committee is a voluntary one, so we offer the data using whatever tools we have available. Hosting in the NCBI BioSample database is a fantastic step forward for us.

      Good to know that something (somewhat) better than PDF is available, but why not simply post that at the ICLAC site rather than via email? Also good to hear about BioSample.

      If you send me the spreadsheet, I would be happy to create a more human-and-computer friendly version which you could then add to the ICLAC website (for free). ydenberg AT gmail DOT com.

      In addition, the ICLAC cross-contaminated and misidentified cell lines will soon be hosted in the NCBI BioSample database - watch out for a link on the homepage at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biosample/

      Neil, the database itself is maintained as an Excel spreadsheet. Copies are available on request - just let me know your email and I can send through to you.

      This looks like a very useful resource. I'm sure it would be used and known more widely if the data were provided in an open, usable format. A PDF is most certainly not a database. Perhaps someone at the ICLAC could look into providing the data in a delimited plain text format such as CSV.

      This list of cross-contaminated or misidentified cell lines is now curated by the International Cell Line Authentication Committee (ICLAC). You can download the latest version at http://iclac.org/databases/cross-contaminations/
