Propagation:

ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is Alpha Minimum Essential medium without ribonucleosides and deoxyribonucleosides but with 2 mM L-glutamine and 1.5 g/L sodium bicarbonate . To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 20%
Atmosphere: air, 95%; carbon dioxide (CO2), 5%
Temperature: 37.0°C
|
|
Subculturing:
|
Protocol: Note: Cell density is important. If the subculture ratio is too low, the culture will not reach confluence. However, do not overgrow. Very large cells tend to appear after overgrowth and these cells are a warning sign that the OP9 cells will not support the maintenance of hematopoietic cells. Subculture just before confluence.
-
Remove and discard culture medium.
-
Briefly rinse the cell layer with 0.25% (w/v) Trypsin- 0.53 mM EDTA solution to remove all traces of serum which contains trypsin inhibitor.
-
Add 2.0 to 3.0 ml of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes).
Note: To avoid clumping do not agitate the cells by hitting or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal.
-
Add 6.0 to 8.0 ml of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting.
-
Transfer cell suspension to a centrifuge tube and spin at approximately 125 X g for 5 to 10 minutes. Discard supernatant.
-
Resuspend the cell pellet in fresh growth medium. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
-
Incubate cultures at 37°C.
Interval: Maintain cultures at a cell concentration between 4 X 10(3) and 1 X 10(4) cells/cm2.
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:4 to 1:5 is recommended
Medium Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days
