Product Description
Hep G2 Cell Line | EP-CL-0103 | Elabscience
Background: The cells express 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase and hepatic triglyceride lipase activities.The cells demonstrate decreased expression of apoA-I mRNA and increased expression of catalase mRNA in response to gramoxone(oxidative stress).There is no evidence of a Hepatitis B virus genome in this cell line.
Species: Homo sapiens, Human
Age: 15 years adolescent
Tissue: Liver
Morphology: Epithelial
Growth Properties: Adherent
Organism: Homo sapiens, Human
Species Cell: Human
application: These cells are suitable as a transfection host.
Doubling Time: N/A
Biosafety: 1
Subculturing: Remove and discard culture medium. Briefly rinse the cell layer with DPBS solution to remove all traces of serum that contains trypsin inhibitor. Add 1.0 to 2.0 mL of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 2 to 3 minutes). Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal. Add 4.0 to 6.0 mL of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
Ratio: 1:2-1:4
Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days
