BKS db Control Mouse Kidney Fibroblasts

Catalog No.  K57-6016

Suggested Medium:  Fibroblast Medium /w Kit –500 ml

Catalog No. M2267 

Product Description

BKS db Control Mouse Kidney Fibroblasts are isolated from the kidney of C57BLKS/J pathogen-free laboratory mice. BKS db Control Mouse Kidney Fibroblasts are grown in T75 tissue culture flasks pre-coated with gelatin-based coating solution for 2 min and incubated in Cell Biologics’ Culture Complete Growth Medium generally for 3-7 days. Cultures are then expanded. Prior to shipping, cells at passage 1 are detached from flasks and immediately cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains at least 0.5x10⁶ cells per ml. 

Product Testing

BKS db Control Mouse Kidney Fibroblasts are tested for expression of marker using the antibody of anti-FSP1/S100A4 (Millipore USA) by immunofluorescence staining. 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.

Laboratory Applications

BKS db Control Mouse Kidney Fibroblasts 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 of Cell Biologics’ Products

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 should never be kept at -20 °C.
