Applications: | transfection host (Nucleofection technology from Lonza Roche FuGENE® Transfection Reagents) |
Virus Susceptibility: | Herpes simplex virus Vesicular stomatitis virus Human poliovirus 1 |
Antigen Expression: | H-2, a haplotype; Mus musculus, expressed |
Cytogenetic Analysis: | modal number = 95; range = 59 to 193. Karyotype unstable within a stemline range of 94 to 98 chromosomes. All the cells contain 6 to 10 large chromosomes with median or submedian centromeres and 2 to 4 minute chromosomes. |
GenoType: | albino |
Propagation: | ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium, Catalog No. 30-2003. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%. Atmosphere: air, 95%; carbon dioxide (CO2), 5% Temperature: 37.0°C |
Subculturing: | Protocol: - Remove and discard culture medium.
- Briefly rinse the cell layer with 0.25% (w/v) Trypsin - 0.53 mM EDTA solution to remove all traces of serum that contains trypsin inhibitor.
- Add 2.0 to 3.0 ml of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes).
Note: To avoid clumping do not agitate the cells by hitting or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37C to facilitate dispersal. - Add 6.0 to 8.0 ml of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting.
- Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
- Incubate cultures at 37C.
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:3 to 1:6 is recommended Medium Renewal: 1 to 2 times per week |
Preservation: | Freeze medium: Complete growth medium, 95%; DMSO, 5% Storage temperature: liquid nitrogen vapor phase |
