| Derivation |
BL3.1 is a B-lymphosarcoma cell line derived in 1990 by irradiation of the bovine B-lymphoblastoid cell line, BL-3.
The BL-3 cell line was isolated from a 3-month-old male Hereford calf.
BL-3 cells were exposed to gamma-irradiation and surviving cells were immunoselected for MHC class I antigen loss. |
