Do we know the severity of the asthma or the genotype of the cystic fibrosis donors?

Generally, information on the severity of asthma is not available. For our diseased cells from donors with cystic fibrosis, we usually have information on the genotype of the donor. Please contact our scientific support department for further...

How do I promote keratinocyte terminal differentiation towards corneocytes?

Keratinocyte differentiation can be induced by increasing the concentration of calcium and/or by adding serum to the media. Cells should be initially plated using the standard culture media and conditions and allowed ample time to recover from...

Do your ProCHO™ Media contain hypoxanthine and thymidine?

All of our ProCHO™ Media, doe not contain Thymidine and Hypoxanthine. So if the customer has a CHO Clone which is dhfr-negativ, he will need to add Thymidine and Hypoxanthine or otherwise the cells will not grow. If the customer has a CHO clone...

What is the best incubation time for transient gene expression in Nucleofection® Experiments?

The optimal incubation time ranges from 2 to 6 days depending on various factors like the stability of the protein in the medium, potential toxicity of the protein, cell density and stability of the plasmid in the nucleus. To check the timepoint...

Can I use larger cuvettes for my Nucleofection® Reaction? Can I use the cuvettes more than once?

No. The electrical parameters provided by the Nucleofector® System are optimized for the cuvettes contained in the Nucleofector® Kits. The cuvettes are single-use only. Using the cuvettes more than once will result in higher cell death and lower...

Do bacteria lead to false positive MycoAlert® Results?

...is characterized by rapid appearance of turbidity in cell culture media. One of the dangers of mycoplasma infection is that they do not produce turbidity, hence the need for a test such as the MycoAlert® Assay....

What is a Clonetics™ or Poietics™ Basal Medium?

The Clonetics™ and Poietics™ Basal Media are primarily composed of trace metals, amino acids, vitamins, salts, and water. The basal medium contains no growth factors or antibiotics and is not sufficient to support cell attachment and growth...

Which reporter gene should I choose for my reporter gene experiment?

In general, all reporter genes can be used.For some applications (e.g. reporter gene experiments in various primary cells, experiments with late analysis time point due to starving and /or stimulation) a reporter gene with a longer half life than...

Where are Lonza’s aortic adventitial fibroblasts (AoAF) isolated from?

...muscle cells, and the tunica adventitia is the outermost layer where the aortic adventitial fibroblasts (AoAF) are isolated from. Aortic adventitial fibroblasts (AoAF) are isolated from either ascending or descending aorta....

Why are Lonza’s adult melanocytes cultured with Endothelin-3 (ET-3) while the neonatal melanocytes are not cultured with this reagent?

Adult melanocytes typically have a very slow doubling time, especially in comparison to neonatal melanocytes. Endothelin-3 (ET-3) is added to adult melanocytes only to improve the doubling time and, in the process, help to maintain the cells...
