| ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated RPMI-1640 Medium, Catalog No. 30-2001. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%. Temperature: 37.0°C |
| Medium Renewal: Add fresh medium every 2 to 3 days (depending on cell density) Cultures can be maintained by addition of fresh medium or replacement of medium. Alternatively, cultures can be established by centrifugation with subsequent resuspension in fresh medium at 3 - 5 X 10 exp5 viable cells/ml. Maintain cultures at cell concentrations between 3 X 10 exp5 and 3 X 10 exp6 viable cells/ml. |
