What media can the CD14+ Monocytes be cultured in to maintain the monocyte phenotype?

CD14+ Monocytes can be cultured in IMDM + 10% FBS to help maintain the monocyte phenotype. The cells will slowly become adherent but it can take a week to get good adherence. M-CSF (10 ng/ml) will induce a little proliferation and increase adherence....

How many passages can I use the Clonetics™ diseased cells?

Proliferative capacity of Lonza's Clonetics™ diseased cells is tested through one or more passages (depending on the cell type) for information only.It is NOT a specification where a minimum number of doublings must be obtained in order to pass...

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. To the...

How many donors are pooled to create the pooled human cells?

Lonza is offering the following primary cells from single donors and from pooled donors:HUVEC (human umbilical vein endothelial cells)NHEK-neo (human epidermal keratinocytes)HMVEC-dNeo (human microvascular endothelial cells, dermal, neonatal)When...

What is in your ReagentPack™ Subculturing Reagents Kit (CC-5034)?

The ReagentPack™ Subculturing Reagents Kit is composed of three components: - 100 ml of HEPES Buffered Saline Solution, - 100 ml of Trypsin/EDTA- 100 ml of Trypsin Neutralizing Solution (TNS).

Which Lonza Bacterial Endotoxin Test (BET), LAL or PyroGene™ Recombinant Factor C (rFC), endotoxin detection kit should I use?

There are a few different things you should consider before deciding which endotoxin detection kit to order. First of all, how many samples will you be testing, and how frequently? If you are going to be testing one or two samples, one time only,...

Do I need to heat inactivate the FBS contained in the SingleQuots™ Kit?

No, we do not recommend heat inactivating the FBS provided in the SingleQuots™ Kit. Heat inactivating the serum can alter cell performance and denature essential components in the serum.

When would be the optimal time to perform experiments post osteogenic differentiation for human mesenchymal stem cells?

Once the cells have differentiated and started laying down bone matrix, we recommend assaying the cells immediately. If cells begin to delaminate (peel of the culture plate in layers), this would indicate that the cells are embedded in the calcium...

What equipment do I need to run my Lonza Bacterial Endotoxin Test (BET), LAL or PyroGene™ Recombinant Factor C (rFC), endotoxin detection assay?

Each endotoxin detection assay requires the use of different equipment. If running one of our PYROGENT™ Gel-Clot assays, a non-circulating waterbath or a dry heat block able to heat at 37°C is required. If running one of our kinetic assays,...

How to prepare a BulletKit™ Medium?

The SingleQuots™ Kit provided in the BulletKit™ Media have been premeasured for the bottle of basal medium also provided in the kit. For most BulletKit™ Media, simply thaw the SingleQuots™ and add them to the bottle of basal medium. The complete...
