Atelerix Unveils Hedgehog-Worthy Innovation: ImmuPHAGE™ Goes Room-Temperature

“Prickly cells, meet the ultimate travel companion.” That’s essentially the headline here, folks. Atelerix has cracked the nut—or perhaps the hedgehog shell—on transporting the famously delicate ImmuPHAGE™ cells without losing their shape, function, or charm. Enter WellReady™, the clever gel technology that lets these fragile immune cells take a three-day, room-temperature holiday without breaking a sweat (or a pseudopod).

What’s the Big Deal?
ImmuPHAGE™, human alveolar macrophage-like cells, are a bit like hedgehogs of the immune world: small, sensitive, and vital for protecting their “territory.” Trouble is, these prickly little champions hate travelling. They’ve been notoriously tricky to move without compromising their health—until now.

Here’s the rub: Atelerix popped these cells into WellReady™, shipped them under simulated conditions for 72 hours, then cultured them for five days. The result? No lost spikes! These cells kept their spherical splendour, granular charm, and those delightful pseudopodia extensions intact. In layman’s terms, they stayed happy and functional—just like a hedgehog snug in its burrow.

Quoting the Experts
“This is the breakthrough we’ve all been waiting for,” says ImmuIOne. “Think of it as first-class travel for your most sensitive passengers. WellReady™ is the gel blanket these cells deserve.”

Why It Matters
Imagine sending your prized pet hedgehog on a journey, only to find it’s arrived frazzled and unrecognisable. Not anymore. This breakthrough opens the door for researchers and pharmaceutical innovators to ship delicate cells with ease, unlocking new frontiers in science and medicine.

The Next Step
Atelerix is looking ahead with prickles of optimism. With WellReady™, they’re rewriting the rules of cell transport—making it reliable, simple, and room-temperature friendly. The future of cell science? It’s looking sharp.
