What are the suggested culturing conditions for CD34+ cells?

Lonza's CD34+ cells should be cultured according to Lonza's "Technical information and Instructions for Culturing Human CD34+ Cells"Upon thaw, we typically suggest that CD34+ cells be established in culture at a density of 20,000 to 200,000...

What is the difference between Lonza’s various renal cell types?

The primary differences between each of Lonza’s various renal cell types are the isolation location and the markers for which each cell types tests positive.Human Renal Epithelial Cells (HRE; Catalog no. CC-2556): Lonza’s Human Renal Epithelial (HRE)...

Where are Lonza’s HRE Human Renal Epithelial cells CC-2556 isolated from?

Lonza’s Human Renal Epithelial (HRE) cells are an expansion of HNK (human neonatal kidney) cells. The kidneys are homogenized and the mixed population of cells are cultured in Lonza REGM™ Renal Epithelial Cell Growth Medium for one passage prior to...

Is the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) type information available for any of Lonza's cell products?

Lonza does obtain the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) type information for many (but not all) of the Clonetics® and Poietics® Cell Types we are offering. If you require cells of a specific HLA type donor, please contact Lonza's Scientific Support Team....

Where are Lonza’s RPTEC cells CC-2553 isolated from? Is Lonza certain that these cells are truly RPTEC?

Lonza’s Renal Proximal Tubule Epithelial Cells (RPTEC) are isolated from the cortex of the kidney. A characteristic of kidney cortex epithelial isolation results in a population consisting of approximately 50%- 70% RPTEC. Lonza uses a proprietary...

How are Lonza's CD34+ cells isolated?

Lonza's CD34+ cells are isolated first by obtaining mononuclear cells from bone marrow or cord blood via density gradient centrifugation. The CD34+ cells are then isolated form the mononuclear cell population using positive immunomagnetic selection.

What is the purity of Lonza's CD34+ cells?

Cell purity (as determined via FACS analysis for CD34 expression) is guaranteed to be 90% or greater for all Lonza CD34+ cell products. For some Lonza CD34+ cell products, a "budget" version of the product is available. The "budget" versions of the...

What is the general anatomy of the human prostate? From which portion of the human prostate are Lonza's prostate cells are derived?

The human prostate can generally be described as being glandular epithelium (parenchymal) surrounded by a fibromuscular stroma.The parenchymal portion of the prostate, or of any organ in the body, is epithelial like in nature and contains the “worker...

What is the distance between the two combs on Lonza's Reliant™ Gel, catalog number 57236?

From the bottom of one well to the top of the next, the distance is 31mm.

Can Lonza’s PrEC cells be co-cultured with Lonza’s PrSC cells?

While Lonza has never attempted to co-culture Prostate Epithelial Cells (PrEC) and Prostate Stromal Cells (PrSC) together in-house, the recommendation of Lonza Research & Development would be to plate and culture the PrEC and PrSC cells together...
