Where are Lonza’s Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells (AoSMC) isolated from?

While Lonza’s Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells (AoSMC) are isolated from either the ascending or descending aorta, it is usually the ascending aorta that is used. If the heart comes with the aorta, which happens most of the time, then the AoSMC...

Can I use a medium other than the one you offer to culture Clonetics® Cells?

We have an optimized medium for each Clonetics® Cell type. The cells are grown and tested in their specific medium system. Lonza guarantees the performance of Clonetics® cells only if appropriate Clonetics® media and reagents are used...

What is the recommended culturing protocol for Lonza's bone marrow stromal cells (2M-302)?

Lonza's bone marrow stromal cells should be thawed according to Lonza's "Procedure for thawing Poietics™ Cells". Upon thaw, cells should be plated at 3,000-4,000 cells per cm² in MyeloCult™ H5100 from StemCell Technologies, Inc. An adherent...

For cultivation of Smooth Muscle Cells - Can the insulin be left out of the SmGM™-2 Media?

Yes, insulin can be left out of the SmGM™-2 media for as long as 1-3 passages.Insulin is beneficial to the cells for long term growth (ie. 4 - 5 passages), however smooth muscle cells do survive quite well short term without insulin.Insulin...

What is the effect of cellular ATPases on the results obtained with the ViaLight™ Plus Cell Proliferation and Cytotoxicity BioAssay?

The ViaLight™ Plus Cell Lysis Reagent inhibits ATPase activity - mainly by using a low pH and denaturing the cellular proteins. This is why the ViaLight™ Plus Assay has such a good half life. So cell expressing high ATPase will probably...

Why does Lonza recommend using non-ventilated caps when culturing insect cells?

The reason is that insect cells are often incubated in very simple incubators that are not humidified (and without CO2 at 24°C to 28°C). Insect media typically do not need CO2 for buffering pH, so gas exchange is not required. To avoid evaporation...
