Handling
Culture Medium | DMEM:Ham's F12, w: 3.1 g/L Glucose, w: 1.6 mM L-Glutamine, w: 15 mM HEPES, w: 1.0 mM Sodium pyruvate, w: 1.2 g/L NaHCO3 (Cytion article number 820400a) |
---|---|
Medium supplements | Supplement the medium with 10% FBS, 5 mg/L Heparin, 20 ng/mL bFGF, 20 microgram/L EGF, 5 mg/L Insulin, 100 mg/L Transferrin, 5,2 microgram/L Na-selenit, 6,3 microgram/L Progesteron, 161,1 microgram/L Putrescin, 50 mg/L Hydrocortinson |
Subculturing | For subculturing spheroid cultures, begin by mechanically dissociating the spheroids through pipetting up and down 5 to 10 times using an Eppendorf pipette with 1000 ?l filter tips. After this, centrifuge the mixture at 300g for 5 minutes at room temperature to pellet the cells. Discard the supernatant and resuspend the cell pellet in fresh culture medium. Finally, transfer the resuspended cells into new culture vessels to promote further spheroid formation. This approach ensures efficient spheroid breakdown and readies them for continued growth in a new environment. |
Split ratio | A ratio of 1:2 to 1:5 is recommended |
Seeding density | 2 x 10^5 cells/ml |
Fluid renewal | 2 to 3 times per week |
Freezing recovery | After thawing allow the cells to recover from the freezing process for at least 24 to 48 hours. |
Freeze medium | CM-1 (Cytion catalog number 800100) or CM-ACF (Cytion catalog number 806100) |

Quality control / Genetic profile / HLA
Sterility | Mycoplasma contamination is excluded using both PCR-based assays and luminescence-based mycoplasma detection methods. To ensure there is no bacterial, fungal, or yeast contamination, cell cultures are subjected to daily visual inspections. |
