I transfected neurons using the 4D-Nucleofector® Y-Unit. After Nucleofection®, there were precipitates in my culture. What can I do?

Most likely there was too much Nucleofector® Solution left before medium addition. Please try to aspirate solution after Nucleofection® as complete as possible without disturbing cell adherence, but add medium quickly to avoid cells getting...

Do your Clonetics Rat and Mouse Astrocytes proliferate?

Yes. The cells do expand in culture.

What age are the mice and rats that your Clonetics Mouse and Rat Astrocytes are isolated from?

They are embryonic. The rats are E18 or E19 and the mice are E14 or E15.

Do you have any recommendation how to coat glass cover slips for neuron culture, e.g. for use with the Y unit or for post Nucleofection® culture in general?

Preparation of coverslips: At Lonza we used coverslips from Menzel (part of Thermo Scientific). We think that the coverslips have such a good quality that they don’t have to be cleaned prior to use.If you want to use other coverslips or prefer...



Can you use the AdipoRed Assay on cells other than preadipocytes?

Yes, the AdipoRed™ Assay Reagent can be used on many other cell types that accumulate triglycerides. It may have to be optimized for specific applications depending on the lipid that is stained.

What primary human diseased airway cells does Lonza offer?

Lonza's current portfolio for human diseased airway cells includes:- Bronchial Epithelial Cells- Lung Fibroblasts- Bronchial Smooth Muscle Cells...from asthmatic and COPD donors and if available from donors with Cystic fibrosis.An overview of...

Do the Clonetics Rat and Mouse Astrocytes require an extracellular matrix for plating?

No, they simply need to be seeded onto tissue culture treated plastic. For best performance, we recommend to use positively charged plasticware
