Description
Let’s preserve your cells in a “no DMSO and Serum" condition!
[ For cryopreservation of Stem Cells = the "StemCell Keep" ]
Protocol
Cultured cells in a liquid suspension form can be cryo-preserved with minimal damages from freezing and thawing steps. CryoScarless DMSO-Free preserves them with high viability and physiological activity. CryoScarless DMSO-Free includes no DMSO and no animal proteins.
Usage
1. Freezing cell suspensions
Centrifuge suspended media of cultured cells and pellet them by elimination of supernatant at 4 ~ 10 °C.
Resuspend the cell pellet with CryoScarless DMSO-Free at a preferred concentration of 5 × 105 ~ 5 × 106 cell/mL.
Pipette the cell suspension into a cryotube at 1mL/vial and freeze them at –80 °C.
For longer preservation, transfer the cryotube into a liquid nitrogen chamber (-196 °C) on the following day
2. Restoring live tissues from preserved state
Warm the cryotube containing the preserved cells in a water bath at 37 °C by gently shaking the tube and thaw the contents.
Centrifuge the cells and wash in cold PBS before transferring the cells to an experimental medium. When the live cells are used for experiments or cultured, place them under proper physiological conditions as soon as possible (e.g. 37 °C).
Expiration
CryoScarless DMSO-Free can be used for 2 years after the manufacture date if stored properly at 4 °C or –20 °C
Storage
Left-over solution can be stored at 4 °C or –20 °C for 2 years without loosing its functional quality.
Quality Control:
Bacterial tests:
Bacteria, fungi or mycoplasma
contamination is all negative.
Existent problem of preservation media contains DMSO and What is vitrification?
Very old method of cryopreservation was “Slow Programmed Freezing” using by 10% DMSO contained solution. However, big ice crystal is formed by this method and this crystal causes very poor cell viability (0.1-1%) for primate ES and iPS cells. Improved method is “vitrification” using by DAP213 (DMSO 2M, Acetamide 1M, Propylene glycol 3M).
Vitrification is the new method for preventing ice crystal formation by rapid freezing (<15 sec) in LN2. However, this method requires rapid thawing to prevent recrystallization and experienced operators. It is known that DMSO has influence on OCT-4 expression and differentiation, Acetamide is identified as carcinogens. Moreover, DAP213 is high osmolarity solution – it means this solution has high toxicity. Therefore, development of low Toxicity, easy to use vitrification solution had been expected.StemCell Keep is the solution that overcomes these disadvantages of DAP213!
Solution freezed by Liquid Nitrogen is heated by 50℃/min.
StemCell Keep does not have recrystallization during temperature rising.
