Cell Line Origin

Human cervix carcinoma

Cell Line Description

Originally derived from a human embryonic lung. Used for primary isolation of enteroviruses and also found to be sensitive to hepatitis virus. The line shows HeLa markers. This cell line was found to be indistinguishable from HeLa by STR PCR DNA profiling. Therefore, the cell line should be considered as derived from HeLa. Ethnicity: Black.

Application

Isolation of enteroviruses

Culture Medium

EMEM (EBSS) + 2mM Glutamine + 1% Non Essential Amino Acids (NEAA) + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS).

Subculture Routine

Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:4 to 1:10 i.e. seeding at 1-3x10,000 cells/cm2 using 0.25% trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO2; 37°C. The cells grow in clumps.
