Seventeen to 20 marker chromosomes were common to most S metaphases. Normal X, 13, and 19 chromosomes were absent, and chromosomes 2, 3, 14, 17 and 20 were generally monosomic. The Y chromosome was not detected using QM staining. | Isoenzymes: | AK-1, 1; ES-D, 1; G6PD, B; GLO-I, 1; Me-2, 1-2; PGM1, 1-2; PGM3, 1 | Age: | 65 years adult | Gender: | male | Ethnicity: | Caucasian | Propagation: | ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Eagles 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%. Temperature: 37.0C Atmosphere: air, 95%; carbon dioxide (CO2), 5% | Subculturing: | Protocol: Remove medium, rinse with fresh 0.25% trypsin, 0.03% EDTA solution, remove trypsin and let the culture sit at room temperature (or at 37C) until the cells detach (about 10 minutes). Add fresh medium, aspirate and dispense into new flasks. Subcultivation ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:3 to 1:6 is recommended Medium renewal: 2 to 3 times per week | Preservation: | Freeze medium: Complete growth medium, 95%; DMSO, 5% Storage temperature: liquid nitrogen vapor phase | References: | 21869: Fogh J, editor.
