Primary Gingival Fibroblast; Normal, Human, Adult (HGF) (RMCL-00260311)
Cat. No.: RMCL-00260311
Category: Primary cell
INQUIRY
1 vial
Primary gingival fibroblast was isolated from the gingiva. The cell has applications in human gingival fibroblasts (hGF) and could potentially be an alternative source of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) for regenerative medicine studies as they share similar morphology, CD markers, and differentiation lineage.

Handling procedure | To ensure 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 -70°C. Storage at -70°C will result in loss of viability. Thaw the vial by gentle agitation in a 37°C water bath. To reduce the possibility of contamination, keep the O-ring and cap out of the water. Thawing should be rapid (approximately 2 minutes). Remove the vial from the water bath as soon as the contents are thawed, and decontaminate by spraying with 70% ethanol. All of the operations from this point on should be carried out under strict aseptic conditions. Transfer the vial contents to a centrifuge tube containing 9. 0 mL complete culture medium. and spin at approximately 125 x g for 5 to 7 minutes. Discard supernatant and resuspend cell pellet with the recommended complete medium (see the specific batch information for the culture recommended dilution ratio). It is important to avoid excessive alkalinity of the medium during recovery of the cells. It is suggested that, prior to the addition of the vial contents, the culture vessel containing the complete growth medium be placed into the incubator for at least 15 minutes to allow the medium to reach its normal pH (7. 0 to 7. 6). pH (7. 0 to 7. 6).
