Human [African American Male] Induced Pluripotent Stem (IPS) Cells

Human [African American Male] Induced Pluripotent Stem (IPS) Cells (RMCL-00260252)

Cat. No.: RMCL-00260252

Category: Cell Lines

INQUIRY 1 vial
Human [African American Male] Induced Pluripotent Stem (iPS) Cells are derived from the bone marrow CD34+ cells of a healthy, African American, male donor. Reprograming method was Sendai viral expression of OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and MYC genes. This cell line can be used for immunology, toxicology, differentiation, and stem cell research.

Storage & Shipping

Storage Conditions Vapor phase of liquid nitrogen
Unpacking and Storage Instructions Check all containers for leakage or breakage. Remove the frozen cells from the dry ice packaging and immediately place the cells at a temperature below -130°C, preferably in liquid nitrogen vapor, until ready for use.
Handling procedure To insure the highest level of viability, thaw the vial and initiate the culture as soon as possible upon receipt. If, upon arrival, continued storage of the frozen culture is necessary, it should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at –80°C. Storage at –80°C will result in loss of viability. Preparation for CultureNight before thawing iPSC cells - Thaw Cell Basement Membrane Gel on ice in refrigerator or cold room (2°C to 8°C) One Hour Prior to Thawing the iPS Cells - Prepare coated plates as described. 30 Minutes Prior to Handling Cells - Pre-warm Pluripotent Stem Cell SFM XF/FF (stem cell culture medium) at 37°C for at least 30 minutes before adding to cells. If using ROCK Inhibitor Y27632, prepare stem cell culture medium supplemented with final concentration of 10 μM ROCK Inhibitor Y27632. Stem cell culture medium with ROCK inhibitor must be used immediately.
