The application of horse serum and the characteristics of PETG media bottle

图片
  Serum is a nutrient required for cell culture. There are many types of serum. In addition to the bovine serum we often say, horse serum is also commonly used. So which cells are this serum mainly used for, and what are the characteristics of the   PETG media bottle   as its container? Serum refers to the light yellow transparent liquid separated from the fibrin in the plasma after blood coagulation, or refers to the plasma from which the fibrin has been removed. The main function is to provide basic nutrients, hormones and various growth factors, binding proteins, contact-promoting and stretching factors to protect cells from mechanical damage and protect cells in culture. Horse serum is collected from healthy horse blood as raw material, aseptic blood collection in a closed system, and microporous filtration. It is a clear liquid, free of bacteriophage, ultra-low endotoxin, no hemolysis, no foreign matter, no bacteria, fungi, mycoplasma, mycoplasma, chlamydia, etc., promoting The ef

This gene encodes type VII collagen (COL7), which is an essential protein that helps strengthen and stabilize the outer and middle layers of th

Two important characteristics of cell culture plates

图片
  Cell culture plates   are a kind of consumable with porous structure. The common ones are 4-well, 6-well, 24-well, 48-well, 96-well, etc. It is mainly used for exploring and optimizing the initial experimental conditions in cell and culture.  Cell culture experiment is a very rigorous work, which requires very high performance of consumables. For cell culture plates, it is mainly reflected in the following two aspects: 1. Adherence ability: This is a necessary condition for the growth of adherent cells. Different from the growth of suspension cells in the culture medium, the growth of adherent cells must have a support surface that can be attached. The cells rely on their own secretion or in the culture medium. The provided attachment factors can grow and reproduce on the surface. Cell culture plates generally use polystyrene raw materials, which are hydrophobic in nature. In order to adapt to the growth of adherent cells, they will undergo special surface modification.

What is the amount of liquid added to the cell culture erlenmeyer flask?

图片
  In suspension cell culture,   cell culture erlenmeyer flask   is commonly used as a cell culture consumable. The growth of suspension cells does not rely on the surface of the support and grows in a suspended state in the culture medium. In actual culture, how do we determine the amount of liquid to add? The common specifications of cell culture erlenmeyer flask include 125ml, 250ml, 500ml, and 1000ml, which meet the needs of different scales of cell culture. For example, 125ml and 250ml small-capacity bottles are mainly used for small-scale experiments, while 500ml and 1000ml specifications are used for medium-scale cell culture experiments. When this consumable is used, the vibration of the shaker is used to reduce the clumping rate of cells and maintain a good growth state of cells. Cell culture needs to be carried out in a sterile environment. Therefore, the triangular culture flask will undergo special sterilization treatment before it is put into use to achieve the effect of no

How to Observe Cells in Cell Culture Flasks

图片
As a convenient cell culture container,   cell culture flasks   appear frequently in laboratories and are mainly used to cultivate adherent cells. When culturing cells, we need to observe the state of the cells and judge their growth. So, how should we observe? First of all, the state of the cells can be observed through eyes or a microscope. When we take out the cell culture flasks from the incubator, we can judge the growth of the cells by the color, concentration, and cell state of the medium. T25 Flask 1. Look at the color of the medium. There are acid-base indicators in most media, which are yellow when acidic and purple when alkaline. If the pH value of the medium changes greatly, consider whether the medium is contaminated, or the cells grow too densely, or the cells die too much, or there is a problem with the adjustment of the CO2 concentration in the incubator. 2. Look at the concentration of the medium. When the medium becomes turbid, the medium is contaminated or the cells

Application of Fetal Bovine Serum and Selection of Media Bottle

图片
  Fetal bovine serum is a commonly used supplementary medium in cell culture. It is rich in nutrients necessary for cell growth, and at the same time provides adhesion factors, detoxification, protease inhibitors, and protects cells from damage. There are many kinds of cells, which cells are the main uses of this serum, and how to choose the   media bottle   for storage? Although serum-free culture technology has been developed rapidly, many cell lines may not be applicable, cannot replicate all growth factors present in fetal bovine serum, and have disadvantages such as high development costs of serum-free medium. Fetal bovine serum can be used for research and production of almost all in vitro cultured mammalian cells, including drug discovery, diagnostics, toxicity testing, cell therapy, in vitro fertilization, human and animal vaccine production, etc. 60ml-Square-PETG-PET-Media-Bottles         We have already learned about the application of fetal bovine serum, so such high-quality

Material Features of PETG media bottles

图片
  PETG media bottles   have very good gas barrier properties, and are often used to store and sample active pharmaceutical ingredients and bulk intermediates, and are also very suitable for preparing and storing buffers, serum, various culture media and other liquids. Such a wide range of applications is mainly due to the various excellent properties of its raw materials. PETG is an amorphous copolyester. With the increase of CHDM in the copolymer, the melting point decreases, the glass transition temperature increases, the crystallinity decreases, and finally an amorphous polymer is formed. Generally, the content of CHDM in PETG is more suitable at 30%-40%. Has good viscosity, clarity, color, chemical resistance, and stress whitening resistance. Can be quickly thermoformed or extrusion blow molded. Viscosity is better than acrylic (acrylic). PETG Media Bottles The PETG media bottles made of this raw material has high transparency and excellent impact resistance. This material is espec

How to use PETG media bottles to dispense serum

图片
When culturing cells, serum is an essential nutrient that increases adhesion factors, growth factors, binding proteins, etc. for cell growth. When using serum, we will involve the dispensing operation of serum, so how should it be dispensed into  PETG media bottles ? 1. Thawing Take the serum out of the refrigerator at -20 degrees, thaw at room temperature (or immerse in tap water) (it takes about 30 minutes to 2 hours, or put it in a refrigerator at 4 degrees overnight; if it is not inactivated immediately after thawing, you can put it in 4 Store temporarily in the refrigerator). 2. Inactivation Water bath, 56°C, 30 minutes, and shake evenly at any time. Take it out, put it on ice immediately, and let it cool down to room temperature naturally (about 1-3 hours). During the heat inactivation process, proper shaking at regular intervals can reduce the occurrence of precipitation. 125ml Square PETG Media Bottles 3.
