DSMZ Cell Culture Data:
Morphology:
Medium:
85% RPMI 1640 + 15% h.i. FBS
Subculture:
seed out at ca. 2 x 106 cells/80 cm2; split confluent culture 1:4 every 5-6 days using trypsin/EDTA (occasional loosely adherent clumps can be detached by tapping the flask); coating the flasks with fibronectin may improve adherence and doubling time

at 37 °C with 5% CO2
Doubling time:
about 60 hours
Harvest:
cell harvest of about 10 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
Immunology:
To inquire about expression of EpCAM and intermediate filaments, contact ulfert.rand@dsmz.de.
Authenticity:
STR analysis according to the global standard ANSI/ATCC ASN-0002.1-2021 (2021) resulted in an authentic STR profile of the reference STR database.
