Handling information
| Instructions | 1. Check all containers for leakage or breakage. 2. Remove the frozen cells from the dry ice packaging and immediately transfer them to liquid nitrogen (liquid or vapor phase) for long-term cryopreservation. |
| Complete Medium | McCoy's 5A [PM150710]+10% Nutrient+1% Supplement |
| Incubation Atmosphere | Air, 95%; CO₂, 5% |
| Temperature | 37℃ |
| Subcultivation Ratio | 1:3-1:4 |
| Medium Renewal | 2 to 3 times per week |
| Dissociation Duration | 2-3 min |
| Subculturing Procedure | 1. Remove the culture medium from the T25 cell culture flask. 2. Add approximately 2 mL of PBS. Gently tilt the flask side to side until the PBS covers the entire bottom, then aspirate and discard the PBS. 3. Add 1 mL of 0.25% trypsin solution (containing EDTA). Gently tilt the flask side to side until the trypsin solution covers the entire bottom of the flask. 4. Incubate the cells at 37°C. Observe the cells under an inverted microscope and terminate digestion once the cells round up and detach. To avoid clumping, do not agitate the cells by tapping or shaking the flask during detachment. 5. Add 3 mL of complete culture medium to terminate digestion and disperse into a single cell suspension. 6. Collect the cell suspension and centrifuge at 1200 rpm (approximately 250 ×g) for 3 minutes. Carefully aspirate and discard the supernatant. 7. Add fresh complete culture medium, pipette gently several times to resuspend the cells, and seed them at the appropriate ratio into a new culture flask. Loosen the cap or use a vented cap for incubation. |
| Freeze Medium | Freezing Medium (Serum-free & animal origin-free) [PB180438] |
| Storage Conditions | For long-term cryopreservation, cryovials should be stored in liquid nitrogen at −150°C to −196°C. Storage at −80°C is restricted to short-term interim use only. |
Reference materials
| Background | The U-2 OS cell line (originally named 2T) was established in 1964 by J. Pontén and E. Saksela from a moderately differentiated sarcoma of the tibia in a 15-year-old female. When co-cultured with WI-38 cells or tested by complement fixation (CF) assay for simian virus 40 (SV40), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), or adenoviruses, no viruses were detected. U-2 OS cells express insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and II (IGF-II) receptors, as well as osteosarcoma-derived growth factor (ODGF). The U-2 OS-GFP cell line was constructed from U-2 OS cells by lentiviral transduction and is a stable cell line capable of long-term, high-level GFP expression. This cell line exhibits low passage, high viability, and good condition, making it suitable for experiments including flow cytometry and fluorescence imaging. Selection drug concentration: Puro = 2.0 μg/mL. |
