Product Description
Aged Rat Primary Skeletal Muscle Cells from Cell Biologics are isolated from the skeletal muscle tissues of 62-70 week old rats and grown in gelatin pre-coated tissue culture flask with Cell Biologics’ Complete Growth Medium. Cells at passage 2-3 are harvested from flasks and cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains 0.5x106 cells per ml and is delivered frozen. Aged Rat Primary Skeletal Muscle Cells are characterized by immunofluorescence staining with antibodies of myosin and/or actinin and are negative for bacteria, yeast, fungi, and mycoplasma. These cells can be expanded for 2-3 passages at a split ratio of 1:2 under the cell culture conditions specified by Cell Biologics. Repeated freezing and thawing of cells are not recommended.
Storage
Cryopreserved cells are shipped with dry ice overnight. Upon arrival, transfer frozen cells to liquid nitrogen (-180°C) immediately until ready for use. Live cell shipment is also available on request. Primary cells can never be kept at -20 °C or -80 °C freezer.
