KB cells are widely used as a model for multidrug resistance. However, users need to be aware that these cells are NOT oral squamous cell carcinoma. The KB cell line is known to be cross-contaminated with HeLa. For a list of known cross-contaminated or misidentified cell lines, see http://iclac.org/databases/cross-contaminations/.
