Permissions and restrictions:
DSMZ Cell Culture Data:
Morphology:
Medium:
80% DMEM + 20% h.i. FBS
Subculture:
seed out at 1 x 106 cells/25 cm2; split confluent culture 1:2 to 1:3 once or twice a week using trypsin/EDTA; after thawing, cells may contain a significant amount of granulae; confluent cultures look more transparent

Harvest:
about 1-2 x 106 cells/80 cm2
Storage:
frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO
DSMZ Scientific Data:
Mycoplasma:
negative in DAPI, microbiological culture, RNA hybridization, PCR assays
Species validation:
Species-level identification was carried out by mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase Subunit 1 (COI) DNA barcoding according standard ANSI/ATCC ASN-0003-2015 and revealed Rattus norvegicus species.
Cytogenetics:
rat karyotype
Viruses:
ELISA: reverse transcriptase positive; PCR: SMRV -
