Giant cell carcinomas of the lung producing colony-stimulating factor in vitro and in vivo. Yamada T,Hirohashi S,Shimosato Y,Kodama T,Hayashi S,Ogura T,Gamou S,Shimizu N Jpn J Cancer Res. 1985 Oct;76(10):967-76
RPMI-1640 medium with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Sigma Cat. # 172012)
Temperature
37 C
Cell Density at Seeding
approx. 1.5 x 10^5
Methods for Passages
Mechanical dispersion and dilution. (LU99 is adherent cells but the attachment is weak, and can be detached by vigorous pipetting. Precooling of culture in PBS at 4C for 5 min before dispersion will facilitate the detachment of cells.)
Doubling Time
approx. 24 hrs.
Cell Number in Vial (cells/1ml)
3.8 x 10^6
Viability at cell freezing (%)
98
Antibiotics Used
free
