Description

General description

Sf9 Insect Cells are provided as frozen stocks of Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 cells for establishment of cultures suitable for any application. These cells plus BacVector Insect Cell Medium are recommended for cotransfection of transfer plasmids with BacVector Triple Cut Virus DNA or BacMagicDNA for the construction of baculovirus recombinants and for transfection of pIEx and pBiEx vector constructs of the InsectDirect System. After recovery, they can be grown as semi-adherent cultures in tissue culture flasks or in suspension as shaker cultures. Cells are shipped on dry ice. Upon receipt, the vials should be removed from their container and either recovered immediately, or placed at -70°C and used within two weeks. For longer-term storage, place in liquid nitrogen.
