Description Aged Mouse Dermal Epithelial Cells are isolated from derma tissue of pathogen-free laboratory mice of 58-78 weeks. Aged Mouse Dermal Epithelial Cells are grown in a T25 tissue culture flask pre-coated with gelatin-based coating solution for 2 min and incubated in Cell Biologics’ Culture Complete Growth Medium for 3-5 days. Cells are detached from flasks and immediately cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains at least 0.5x106 cells per ml and is delivered frozen. The method we use to isolate primary epithelial cells was developed based on a combination of established and our proprietary methods. These cells are pre-coated with EpCAM-1 (CD326) antibody, followed by the application of magnetic beads pre-coated with secondary antibody. Product Testing Aged Mouse Dermal Epithelial Cells are characterized by immunofluorescent staining with antibodies of E-cadherin (Catalog 610182, BD) or ZO-1 (Catalog 617300, Life Technology). Aged Mouse Dermal Epithelial Cells are negative for bacteria, yeast, fungi, and mycoplasma. Cells can be expanded for 3-5 passages at a split ratio of 1:2 under the cell culture conditions specified by Cell Biologics. Repeated freezing and thawing of cells is not recommended. Cell Biologics' Cell Genotype Promise Cell Biologics has established rigorous genetic quality control and genotyping programs to ensure the normal and genetic background of our cell strains as well as our diseased cell strains with identified diseases (e.g., diabetic cells, hypertentive cells, smoke cells, etc.). Cell Biologics' cell strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. Because it is not possible to fully characterize or capture each cell strain in the cell strain data sheets, we cannot guarantee each cell strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that Cell Biologics' cells will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a cell strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of cells (1-2 vials) to determine suitability for your particular project. Suggested Medium Epithelial Cell Medium /w Kit – 500 ml Catalog No. M6621 Laboratory Applications Aged Mouse Dermal Epithelial Cells can be used for the assay of cell-cell interaction, adhesion, PCR, Western blot, immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescent flow cytometry, or generating cell derivatives for desired research applications. Storage Cell Biologics ships frozen cells on dry ice. On receipt, immediately transfer frozen cells to liquid nitrogen (-180 °C) until ready for experimental use. Live cell shipment is also available on request. Primary cells can never be kept at -20 °C. Documents A57-6066 Cell-Culture-Protocol-CB Disclaimer Although Aged Mouse DermalEpithelial Cells are isolated from laboratory mice testing pathogen-free, investigators should handle the cells that they receive from Cell Biologics with caution and treat all animal cells as potential pathogens, since no test procedure can completely guarantee the absence of infectious agents.
