We have derived a more general growth equation that defines cell growth in terms of the dividing fraction of daughter cells. The definition as stated here describes the general transfer of DNA irrespective of its source. Marek K, Armando F, Nippold VM, Rohn K, Plattet P, Brogden G, Gerold G, Baumgrtner W, Puff C. Int J Mol Sci. ATCC30-2300Penicillin-Streptomycin Solution. Alexis Carrel developed the first glass flasks in the 1920s. At this point, the cells can be maintained in serum-free medium. Closed systems provide additional protection against contamination and have simpler incubator requirements. Cell culture. in both MSCs lines was revealed no difference in PDT between two sources of MSCs when the cells plated at 10^4 cells/cm^2 in a culture medium supplemented with 10% FBS (Table 2). Some supplements may need to be dissolved in a solvent prior to subsequent dilution in serum-free medium to the stock concentration. Additionally, ATCC offers a full line of media, sera, and reagents for culturing cells. The population doubling level (PDL) refers to the total number of times the cells in the population have doubled since their primary isolation in vitro." Unfortunately, hMSCs are a rare population in bone marrow and it is very difficult to estimate the starting number of hMSCs in the initial culture. Stationary monolayer cultures which are grown in undisturbed flasks, dishes, and multiwell plates. Mutat Res. A cell possessing two or more genetically different nuclei in a common cytoplasm, usually derived as a result of cell-to-cell fusion. MeSH Most of the cell lines in the ATCC collection are continuous, though a few, such as CCD-1117Sk human skin fibroblast (ATCC CRL-2465) or CCD-18Co human colon (ATCC CRL-1459) are finite. Further characterization of 0.75% FBS maintained chick cells returned to 10% FBS medium showed that cells had . Contact inhibition of locomotion. The formula for calculating PDL is. Stock concentrations should be aliquoted into small volumes and stored at an appropriate temperature; most stock concentrations can be stored at 80C, but check with your supplier prior to storing. If L-glutamine is suspected to be a limiting factor during cell culture, a simple test of spiking the medium with a small amount of L-glutamine will determine whether or not more is required. (See attachment efficiency, cloning efficiency, and colony forming efficiency.). Store the remainder of this medium at 4C for later use. (If the cells normally grow as clusters, avoid over-pipetting during resuspension.) The procedure below was developed for BHK-21 cells,4 but can be used as a starting point for most cell lines. In animals, a cell which produces hormones, growth factors, or other signaling substances for which it also expresses the corresponding receptors. Some cell lines grow as mixed adherent and suspension cultures. ATCC uses glass vials for the storage of seed stocks which are placed in the lower level of the liquid nitrogen tank. Aseptic technique. Some fastidious cell lines may require that components be added immediately before use. (See also cell line, in vitro transformation, and in vitro senescence.). For this type of exponential growth, plotting the natural logarithm of cell number against time. A systematic quality evaluation and review of nanomaterial genotoxicity studies: a regulatory perspective. Hilliard CA, Armstrong MJ, Bradt CI, Hill RB, Greenwood SK, Galloway SM. Chemically defined medium. Care should be used when handling any DMSO solution as it will rapidly penetrate intact skin and may carry toxic contaminants along with it. In all cases, continually observe the cells with a microscope during the dissociation process to prevent damage by the dissociation solution. Your browser does not support audio.. Discard the supernatant, taking care not to disturb the soft pellet, and resuspend the cells in 1 mL or 2 mL of complete growth medium. Insurance against phenotypic drift in the culture due to genetic instability and/or selective pressure. In animals, a cell which produces hormones, growth factors or other signaling substances for which the target cells, expressing the corresponding receptors, are located at a distance. The cells were centrifuged too hard or too long when removing excess dissociation solution. Sera will also buffer a complete medium. Calculate the population doubling level with the following formula: Xb is the cell number at the beginning of the incubation time. Cell cultures can be grown in CO2 incubators with L-15 medium provided there is no exchange between the air in the culture vessel with that of the incubator (ie, caps of flasks are tightly closed). 2022 Sep 14;19(1):59. doi: 10.1186/s12989-022-00499-2. Your application may be in one of the following statuses: You can check the status of your application in your My Dashboard portal. until they match the reference cells. Clean your work area before and after use. For best results start cell cultures in the same medium used and distributed by ATCC (listed on the Product Sheet). For example, most researchers report experiments with bone marrow hMSCs in the passage range of 4 to 6. Epub 2006 Dec 14. The following procedure can be used to heat-inactivate serum: Culture vessels provide a contamination barrier to protect the cultures from the external environment while maintaining the proper internal environment. The temperature in the liquid nitrogen at the bottom will be 196C, whereas the temperature at the top will vary depending upon the amount of liquid nitrogen at the bottom as well as the amount of time the container is opened. Colony forming efficiency. Also, look for small fungal colonies that float at the medium-air interface. Mitotic inhibition correlated with increased cell density. ATCC cell line Product Sheets that contains detailed information for handling the cells may be found at the ATCC website or contact ATCC Technical Supportto request a copy. Use a 1:1 mix of the original and new medium in the second vessel. Pyruvate may help in maintaining certain specialized cells, in clonal selection, in reducing the serum concentration of the medium,7 and in reducing fluorescent light-induced phototoxicity.10 Cellular metabolism of pyruvate produces carbon dioxide which is given off into the atmosphere and becomes bicarbonate in the medium. In the 1950s and 1960s, many continuous lines were unknowingly cross-contaminated with other cell lines including HeLa cells. Complete Growth Media Cells cryopreserved using Serum-Free Freezing Medium show levels of viability and percent attachment (adherent cells) that are comparable to cells preserved in DMSO and FBS. A culture started from cells, tissues, or organs taken directly from organisms. The osmolality of cell culture media for most vertebrate cells is kept within a narrow range from 260 mOsm/kg to 320 mOsm/kg, even though most established cell lines will tolerate a rather large variation in osmotic pressure. A quick and sensitive PCR-based test to detect mycoplasma contaminants in cell culture. If the presence of flocculent material or turbidity is a concern, it can be removed by filtration through a 0.45-m filter. It is no longer consistently applicable starting from any time. A culture which is capable of only a limited number of population doublings after which the culture ceases proliferation. ATCC assigns a biosafety level (BSL) to each cell line for purposes of packaging for safe shipment. determine the cell density and viability using a hemocytometer and vital stain, https://www.cdc.gov/labs/pdf/SF__19_308133-A_BMBL6_00-BOOK-WEB-final-3.pdf, Mouse embryonic endothelial cells with GFP expression, Mouse embryonic bone marrow stromal cells, Irradiated MRC-5 cells (human diploid lung fibroblast), Irradiated mouse embryonic liver fibroblasts, Mitomycin C treated mouse embryonic fibroblasts, STO fibroblasts with G418 resistance and endogenous expression of LIF, STO fibroblasts with resistance to G418 and puromycin plus endogenous expression of LIF, Dulbeccos Modified Eagles Medium (DMEM), Iscoves Modified Dulbeccos Medium (IMDM), Penicillin-Streptomycin-Amphotericin B Solution, Dulbeccos Phosphate Buffered Saline (DPBS)*. Unfortunately, naturally derived products from bovine sources may contain adventitious viruses such as bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), bovine parvovirus, bovine adenovirus, and blue tongue virus. Such equipment is relatively expensive and absolutely necessary for only the most sensitive cells. Top: KU812E (ATCC CRL-2100). It is best to test the contaminating microbe for its antibiotic sensitivity prior to treatment; this allows for a shorter treatment time and limits exposure of the cell line to potentially damaging reagents. Many continuous cell lines were derived from tumor tissue. Based upon a density of 1 105 cells/cm2. Continuous cell culture. For some cell lines mechanical forces such as scraping to dislodge the cells is preferred. How do I compute the population doubling time of my cell culture? Maintain one with the original medium and continue to subculture these cells for the entire adaptation process. = 7 days/2 = 3.5 days. Use the recommended formulation and make sure it contains all of the required additives. Plastic vials come in two varieties: those with an internal thread and silicone gasket and those with an external thread. Routinely check the expiration dates of media and reagents. All ATCC cell lines come with information on their growth medium. This is the method used exclusively at ATCC. Use higher enzyme concentrations, higher EDTA concentrations, or different and/or additional enzymes (eg, dispase, collagenase). Otherwise the cells may be subject to metabolic stress which will impair their performance. The conditions under which such a determination is made should always be stated. First, match the characteristics of the cells to be grown with the characteristics of the different culturing systems. Moving monolayer cultures which are grown primarily in roller bottles. Prepare a culture vessel (T-75 flask) so that it contains at least 10 mL of the appropriate culture medium equilibrated for temperature and pH. The maximum cell number attainable, under specified culture conditions, in a culture vessel. For serum-free media, reduce the concentrations by at least 50%. Count, and re-seed a fresh flask with fresh medium at 2.5 10. NOTE 6 Other variations of freeze medium formulations include high (up to 90%) concentrations of serum which presumably supplies some cryoprotection as well as additional growth factors; use of a balanced salt solution designed for hypothermal conditions in place of medium designed for 37C incubation; and the addition of apoptotic inhibitors which may prevent delayed onset cell death following recovery.21 Optimum formulations for individual cell lines need to be determined empirically. After supplements have been added to a base medium, the shelf life of the complete growth medium should be determined on a case-by-case basis. (See: NOTE 3). Hilliard C, Hill R, Armstrong M, Fleckenstein C, Crowley J, Freeland E, Duffy D, Galloway SM. Because EMEM is a simple medium, it is often fortified with additional supplements or higher levels of serum. In vitro transformation. DMEM/F12 Medium is a 1:1 mixture of Dulbeccos modified EMEM and Hams F-12. While cell lines can be cured of microbial contamination with antibiotics and/or antimycotics, this is not recommend unless the cell line is irreplaceable; the process is lengthy and there is no guarantee contamination will be eliminated. and transmitted securely. Most adherent cells should be attached firmly to the surface. They must be used with incubators that control humidity and CO2 levels. Figure 2: Hemocytometer grid with Neubauer ruling. However, for the neural We will not share your information outside of our distributors network and solely use it to send relevant communications. Iscoves Modified Dulbeccos Medium (IMDM) was formulated for growth of lymphocytes and hybridomas. Amplicons were generated using Promegas PowerPlex platform, separated by capillary electrophoresis and analyzed using GeneMapper software from Life Technologies. This term originally encompassed the terms attachment efficiency, cloning efficiency, and colony forming efficiency; it is now better to use one or more of them in its place because plating is not sufficiently descriptive. Unfortunately, phenol red can mimic the action of some steroid hormones, particularly estrogen. Decline phase If the culture medium is not replaced and the cell number is not reduced, the cells lose viability and their number decreases. S is the starting PDL. Population doubling time. Record the location and details of the freeze. Since every situation is different, the risks need to be identified and appropriate precautions need to be taken before any work begins. The following procedure is used to thaw serum: Do not keep the serum at 37C any longer than necessary to thaw it, and do not thaw the serum at higher temperatures. A handy way to calculate age is via Population Doubling Level (PDL), or the total number of times a population of cells doubled during in vitro or ex vivoculture. ATCC Media, Sera, and Reagents When most bacterial contamination occurs, it usually occurs within a few days and is typically obvious to the naked eye. Monitor the growth rate and morphology of the original and adapting cultures. Cryopreservation. In animals, a cell which produces hormones, growth factors or other signaling substances for which the target cells, expressing the corresponding receptors, are located in its vicinity, or in a group adjacent to it. Modify the procedure for each cell line to attain optimal cell viability upon recovery. Stay home if youve been exposed to any illness. The addition of 10% to 20% cell culture-grade bovine serum albumin to serum-free freezing medium may also increase postfreeze survival. If cell densities are allowed to become too high, the cells may exhaust the nutrients in the medium and die abruptly. A cell strain is derived either from a primary culture or a cell line by the selection or cloning of cells having specific properties or markers. A method for experimental estimation of cell cycle times, or doubling times of cultured cancer cell populations, based on addition of paclitaxel (an inhibitor of cell division) has been proposed in literature. Figure 4: STR profiles for two unrelated human cell lines. ATCC EMEM (ATCC 30-2003) contains Earles balanced salt solution, nonessential amino acids, and sodium pyruvate. A type of culture which will grow and can be maintained without attaching to a surface, such as glass or plastic. Examine the cultures after 24 hours and subculture as needed. Careers. The https:// ensures that you are connecting to the This is not the case for continuous cell lines as they are passaged at higher split ratios. If the cells have not been diluted, this factor will be 10. In animal cell culture terminology, a population of cells derived from a single cell by mitoses. L-Glutamine concentrations for mammalian cell culture media can vary from 0.68 mM in Medium 199 to 4 mM in Dulbeccos Modified Eagles Medium. FOIA Embryo culture. This extensively used basal medium can be used to support the growth of a wide variety of human and animal cell lines. A heritable change occurring in cells in culture, either intrinsically or from treatment with chemical carcinogens, oncongenic viruses, irradiation, transfection with oncogenes, etc., which leads to the acquisition of altered morphological, antigenic, neoplastic, proliferative, or other properties. This time is usually taken up in dispensing aliquots of the cell suspension into the vials. In most cases it will be necessary to maintain the culture in suspension with mechanical stirring. (See: Aseptically remove all but 5 mL to 10 mL of the shipping medium. Cells produce and require small amounts of carbon dioxide for growth and survival.6 In culture media, dissolved CO2 is in equilibrium with bicarbonate ions and many medium formulations take advantage of this CO2/bicarbonate reaction to buffer the pH of the medium. Use the following equation to calculate the cell doubling time: Growth rates of normal and abnormal human mammary epithelia in cell culture, Cell Meter Fluorimetric Live Cell Cycle Assay Kit *Optimized for 405 nm Violet Laser Excitation*. BVDV, in contrast to the other virus contaminants, is present in nearly all bovine serum at very low levels even when tests for infectious virus are negative. Transfer the cell suspension into the medium in the culture vessel and mix thoroughly. Further, they can interfere with the metabolism of sensitive cells. This term is not synonymous with cell generation time. Differences in growth characteristics, phosphatase activity, and hydrogen peroxide generation in two clones of a T-cell leukemic line are described in this communication. Vapor-phase systems create a vertical temperature gradient within the container. At the next passage, split the adapting cultures 1:2 in a 1:7 medium mix (12.5% original, 87.5% new). These are the same reagents used by ATCC for cell growth and preservation. The liquid-phase system holds more nitrogen and thus requires less maintenance. Cell culture dishes offer the best economy and access to the growth surface. Pipette gently to loosen the pellet and break apart clumps. The dissociation procedure was too long and stripped away necessary attachment proteins from the cell membrane. You may be just getting back into the laboratory or beginning a new project. They have a finite replicative capacity and begin to slow down and eventually stop dividing after 20 to 80 population doublings.1 Recent evidence suggests that some of the observed cellular senescence in cell culture may be due to inappropriate culture conditions as opposed to a predetermined replicative senescence.2 Still other data support replicative senescence for the cells of some species (notably human) even when grown in improved culture conditions. ATCC offers the following three types of animal sera: These products are rigorously tested for adventitious infective agents and sourced from only U.S. herds. Glass vials are more difficult to work with; they need to be sterilized before use, they do not come with labels (information is imprinted into the glass), they need to be sealed with a hot flame, and they can be difficult to open. Part Fibre Toxicol. This antibody is referred to as a monoclonal antibody. Cellular debris may also be observed in healthy cell populations. Check the progress of cell dissociation by microscopy. For this reason, starting cell cultures in the same medium used by ATCC is recommended for the best results (see the Product Information Sheet and ATCC website). As the recipient of a cell line, take into account not only the nature of the material but also the manipulations employed during its handling when assessing the potential laboratory risk. The harvesting procedure was too harsh (pipetting too vigorous, cells were centrifuged too hard or too long, cells damaged during scraping or banging). Potassium nitrate was substituted for ferric nitrate. Cell lines with animal origin not included under Biosafety Level 2. sharing sensitive information, make sure youre on a federal The situation in which the nucleus of a cell contains exact multiples of the haploid number of chromosomes. We have previously proposed that no truly genotoxic compound would be missed if the toxicity of the highest dose did not exceed 50%. Heteroploid. This expression is distinguished from in vitro neoplastic transformation in that the alterations occurring in the cell population may not always include the ability of the cells to produce tumors in appropriate hosts. If you have one cell and it doubles, then doubles again, then that is two population doublings (PDL=2). The antimycotic amphotericin B is used at 2.5 g/mL.13 These concentrations apply to media that contain serum. Some cultures do not grow well unless a minimum concentration of cells is initially added; see the Product Sheet for details. An equation for the doubling time may be derived as follows. Xe is the cell number at the end of the incubation time. Spinner media have reduced levels of calcium and magnesium. Like you, were committed to protecting the health of our colleagues. Nonviable cells will be stained red (erythrosin B) or dark blue (trypan blue). Copyright 2021 AAT Bioquest, Inc. All Rights Reserved. eCollection 2021. Wurzburg cells had significantly shorter population doubling times compared with the parental Jurkat cells (16.6 +/- 2.0 h and 20.7 +/- 2.2 h, respectively; mean +/- SD, p . Most cell culture laboratories have incorporated PCR-based mycoplasma testing, using kits such as ATCCs Universal Mycoplasma Detection Kit (ATCC 30-1012K) into their routine cell culture operations. However, they are preferred for long-term storage (many years) of valuable cultures and are considered fail-safe once properly sealed. ATCC DMEM/F12 medium (ATCC 30-2006) has a reduced sodium bicarbonate concentration (1,500 mg/L) for use with 5% CO2. Thoroughly mix the cell/medium suspension; use a pipette to suspend cells grown in stationary flasks. Primary cultures are generally subcultured at a 1:2 ratio (they are split in half with each passage). Disclaimer, National Library of Medicine In this case, the medium will have a low pH and be yellow in color. Place frozen serum in a refrigerator at 2C to 8C overnight. Examine the medium in the vessel for macroscopic evidence of microbial contamination. Master the basics of proper personal protective equipment (PPE) use and removal. These components include hormones, growth factors and signaling substances that sustain proliferation and maintain normal cell metabolism. Examine the cell cultures after 24 hours and subculture as needed. Transfer the cell suspension into the culture vessel containing the complete growth medium and mix thoroughly by gentle rocking. Cell growth measured by cell counts as a percentage of controls can underestimate toxicity. Prepare a culture vessel so that it contains the recommended volume of the appropriate culture medium as listed on the Product Sheet, equilibrated for temperature and pH (CO. Thaw the vial by gentle agitation in a water bath at 37C or the normal growth temperature for that cell line. For suspension cultures the total cell yield is determined by the working volume of the vessel. It is based on the formulation used by David H. Sachs and collaborators5 for the propagation of hybridomas and other fastidious cell lines. Either the pipetting was too vigorous or the dissociating solution was too strong or too toxic (ie, the pH or osmolality of the buffer was incorrect). Be particularly cautious when working with a new cell line as media formulations vary among suppliers, even for media with similar or identical names. Elimination of the time, energy, and materials required to maintain cultures not in immediate use. Sarni D, Barroso S, Shtrikman A, Irony-Tur Sinai M, Oren YS, Aguilera A, Kerem B. The dissociation procedure was too harsh and genomic DNA was released from lysed cells. The procedure below will work for most cell cultures and should be modified as needed. The chromosomes may or may not show rearrangements. Designate one-way traffic flows to support distancing. Count the cell suspension, and then seed two or more spinner flasks with 5 10. ATCC DMEM (ATCC 30-2002) has 4,500 mg/L of glucose and a reduced sodium bicarbonate concentration (1,500 mg/L) for use with 5% CO2. Remove the vial from the water bath and decontaminate it by dipping in or spraying with 70% ethanol. While SARS-CoV-2 is currently unique in its pathogenic nature and transmission dynamics, other infectious organisms may in time arise to threaten the health of laboratory workers. Add 2 mL to 3 mL of the trypsin-EDTA solution and incubate at the appropriate temperature. Generation of safety stocks to ensure against loss of the culture from equipment failures or contamination by microorganisms or other cell lines. It then becomes a cell line. In most cases, the recommended medium and serum can be purchased from ATCC along with the cell line. The buffering system employed in the medium needs to be matched to the culture system. While DMSO can be toxic to cells, it penetrates them much faster than glycerol and yields more reproducible results. Specifically check around the edges of the vessel as these may not be readily visible through the microscope. (or if . A few types of cell lines grow better in heat-inactivated sera such as embryonic stem cells16 and many insect cell lines.17. Each of the 9 counting squares holds a volume of 0.0001 mL. The same approach can be used to adapt cells to serum-free medium; simply decrease the serum level in the medium by half with each passage until a 0.06% (or lower) serum level is reached. In vitro senescence. It is formulated with a reduced sodium bicarbonate concentration (1,500 mg/l) for use with 5% CO2 (see Sodium Bicarbonate and Buffering). Homokaryon. Cell line. Today, plastic flasks are available with a range of growing areas, a variety of shapes, with several different neck designs. The individual reporting on such cells should use as many parameters as possible in assigning this term to a culture. HEPES and other organic buffers can be used with many cell lines to effectively buffer the pH of the medium.8 Indeed, some standard medium formulations include HEPES. However, there is always a chance that some liquid will enter improperly sealed vials which may explode when retrieved. There are two basic types of liquid nitrogen storage systems: immersing vials in the liquid and holding vials in the vapor phase above the liquid. The number of times the cells in the culture have been subcultured or passaged. NOTE 5 It is used for protein production, as an energy source, and in nucleic acid metabolism. You've successfully associated your account with your Profile. Autocrine cell. These lines are derived from cell lines through immortalization or transformation by any one of a number of means. In obtaining a culture from another laboratory, the proper designation of the culture, as originally named and described, must be maintained and any deviations in cultivation from the original must be reported in any publication. Another text instructs via Points to Consider in the Characterization of Cell Lines Used to Produce Biologicals (1993): The population doubling level of cells used for production should not exceed an upper limit based on written criteria established by the manufacturer.. Alternately, the concentration of L-glutamine can be measured directly by standard analytical means such as HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography). If this is not possible, store the cells in liquid nitrogen vapor (below 130C). Term used to denote the maintenance or cultivation of cells in vitro including the culture of single cells. The cell population doubling culture should also cause cytopathic effects or transformed to escape by using normal human cells are those carrying the holistic description on plastic. To safeguard the health of our scientists, ATCC has adopted a battery of best practices that minimize transmission of SARS-CoV-2 with little impact on productivity. Before While both stains are used in the same way, ATCC recommends erythrosin B in place of trypan blue for hematopoetic cells. Cell Growth and Propagation The dissociating solution was not inactivated or removed by centrifugation. (See in vitro senescence.). Passage number is generally the number of times the cells have been subcultured into a new vessel. For diploid cultures, passage number is roughly equal to the number of population doublings (or population doubling level, PDL) since the culture was started. For some cells that are loosely attached, a sharp blow with the palm of your hand against the side of the flask can dislodge them. With a traditional MSC culture protocol where there are 2.5 - 3 population doublings per cell passage, this results in MSCs in a PDL range of 12 - 18.
