CYTENA is a biotechnology instruments company that specializes in automated single-cell handling to accelerate biotherapeutic drug development. Its systems isolate individual cells with imaging-based confirmation of clonality and can work with a variety of cell types, including bacteria, while maintaining high viability without cell labeling. A disposable cartridge design helps ensure sample purity and minimizes cross-contamination, facilitating integration into existing workflows. The company has developed the C.STATION platform, a fully automated cell line development system that supports cloning, selection of high-producing clones, and upscaling.

Based in Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-Württemberg, CYTENA operates within the biotechnology research sector, serving pharmaceutical companies and academic researchers pursuing efficient cell line development and single-cell analysis. Its instruments are used by numerous large pharmaceutical firms to rapidly generate monoclonal cell lines for antibody development with minimized cross-contamination risk, and they support academic research in cancer, autoimmune disease, and genomics, with a May 2024 launch of C.WASH PLUS illustrating ongoing product development.
