Cell Line Origin

Mouse x Mouse myeloma, non-producing

Cell Line Description

Sp2/0-Ag14 is a non-Ig-secreting or synthesising line derived from a cell line created by fusing a BALB/c mouse spleen cell and the mouse myeloma P3X63Ag8. Resistant to 8-azaguanine at 20ug/ml and does not survive in HAT containing media. HAT sensitive mouse myeloma hybrid suitable for use as a hybridoma fusion partner - in this sense, functionally it is a myeloma cell line and often referred to as such in the literature.

Application

Fusion partner

Culture Medium

RPMI 1640 or DMEM + 2mM Glutamine + 10% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS).

Subculture Routine

Maintain cultures between 3-9x100,000 cells/ml; 5% CO2; 37°C. HAT sensitive.

Questions

1–7 of 7 Questions  
  1. What medium should I use when I thaw the Cell Line cells?

    1 answer
    1. The medium for each cell line is listed on the product page. It is specific to each cell line. If not visible on the Sigma-Aldrich website product page, the HPA website also contains the same information (www.hpacultures.org.uk). The product number for the cell line is the same on either site.

  2. Why is Vapor Phase Liquid Nitrogen preferred for storage of Cell Line cells?

    1 answer
    1. If ampules are immersed into liquid phase of liquid nitrogen, it increases the risk of the liquid seeping into the vial. This could lead to problems of cross-contamination and increased risk of the ampule exploding when thawed.

  3. What passage are my Cell Line cells?

    1 answer
    1. If the passage of the cells is known, it is listed on the product page at the HPA website (www.hpacultures.org.uk).

  4. How many Cell Line cells are in the vial?

    1 answer
    1. Each vial of cells contains 2-3 x 106 cells in 1 ml of freezing media. This is in a 1.8 mL ampule.  For exceptionally large cells, counts may decrease. Suspension cells, generally smaller cells, may contain as many as 4-5 x 106 cells/vial to assure optimal viability upon thaw.

  5. Are the Cell Line cells tested for viral pathogens?

    1 answer
    1. HPA Cultures does not perform any viral testing on the cell lines.

  6. How do I handle Cell Line frozen cells upon arrival?

    1 answer
    1. Upon receipt, frozen ampules should be transferred directly to vapor phase liquid nitrogen without delay (-135°C) or liquid phase liquid nitrogen if vapor phase is not available. DO NOT use a -80°C freezer as an alternative; this will result in loss of viability.

      Helpful?

  7. Are my Cell Line cells mycoplasma tested?

    1 answer
    1. ECACC routinely tests all manufactured cell banks for mycoplasma.
