Biochem/physiol Actions

HeLa cell line (Sigma catalogue no. 93021013) adapted to grow in animal component free medium (EX-CELL HeLa Serum-Free Medium for HeLa Cells Sigma cat no 14591C).

Human cervical carcinoma, serum-free, animal component (AC) free

Preparation Note

EX-CELL HeLa Serum-Free Medium (Sigma cat no 14591C)+ 2mM Glutamine. When freezing cells down use 50:50 fresh culture medium:conditioned medium plus 10% DMSO.

Viability may be poor on resuscitation and may initially decrease further. Full recovery may take up to 2 weeks. A centrifugation step to remove the cryoprotectant is essential. Rapidly thaw the frozen ampoule in a water bath at 37°C for 1-2 minutes. Tran
