Sprague-Dawley Rat Primary Pulmonary Vein Fibroblasts

Product Description

Sprague-Dawley Rat Primary Pulmonary Vein Fibroblasts from Cell Biologics are isolated from pulmonary vein tissue of 6-8 week old laboratory Sprague-Dawley rat. Cells are grown in T75 tissue culture flasks pre-coated with gelatin-based coating solution for 2 min and incubated in Cell Biologics’ Culture Complete Growth Medium for 3-7 days. Cultures are then expanded. Prior to shipping, cells at passage 1 are detached from flasks and immediately cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains at least 0.5x10⁶ cells per ml.

Product Testing

Sprague-Dawley Rat Primary Pulmonary Vein Fibroblasts are tested for expression of marker using the antibody of anti-FSP1/S100A4, from Millipore by immunofluorescence staining. Cells are negative for bacteria, yeast, fungi, and mycoplasma. Cells can be expanded for 3-5 passages at a split ratio of 1:2 under the cell culture conditions specified by Cell Biologics. Repeated freezing and thawing of cells is not recommended.

Laboratory Applications

Sprague-Dawley Rat Primary Pulmonary Vein Fibroblasts can be used for the assay of cell-cell interaction, adhesion, PCR, Western blot, immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescent flow cytometry, or generating cell derivatives for desired research applications.
