Mouse fibroblast L929Species identification: Anwei organism
Also known as NCTC clone 929, it is a cell line isolated from normal subcutaneous areola and adipose tissue of C3H/An mice. This cell line was established in March 1948 and is one of the earliest continuously cultured cell lines. L929 cells have the morphology of fibroblasts, grow adherent, and are sensitive to various viruses, such as Glasgow vesicular stomatitis virus, Ossetian vesicular stomatitis virus, encephalomyocarditis virus, etc. In addition, they have tumorigenicity in immunosuppressed mice and can be used as host cells for transfection experiments.
L929 cells have a wide range of applications in cell biology and biomedical research, including toxicity testing, virology studies, drug screening, immunological assays, and tissue engineering. Their growth characteristics make them important models for studying cell proliferation, cytotoxicity, cell adhesion, and intercellular connections. Under cultivation conditions, L929 cells are typically grown in DMEM high glucose medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, and cultured under gas phase conditions of 37 ° C, 95% air, and 5% carbon dioxide.
When conducting cell culture, the passage ratio of L929 cells is usually 1:2 to 1:8, with a passage period of about 2-3 days. The freezing solution formula is culture medium 92% and DMSO 8%. These cells have a wide range of applications in scientific research, but it should be noted that all tumor and virus transfected cells are considered to have potential biological hazards, and therefore must be operated in a secondary biosafety platform with appropriate protective measures taken.

| Cell background | In March 1948, NCTC clone 929 (mouse connective tissue) was established as a clone of cell line L. Cell line L is one of the earliest established continuous culture cell lines, and clone 929 is the earliest cloned strain. A parental cell line L was established by inserting normal subcutaneous loose connective tissue from a 100 day old male C3H/An mouse into adipose tissue. Clone929 was established by isolating single cells from the 95th generation cell line L using capillary method. The test found that the mouse pox virus was negative. |
| Cell characteristics

| L Precautions
| For the passage of adherent cells, the following methods can be referred to: 1. Discard the culture supernatant and rinse the cells 1-2 times with PBS that does not contain calcium or magnesium ions. 2. Add 0.25% (w/v) trypsin 0.53 mM EDTA to culture bottles (1-2mL for T25 bottles and 2-3mL for T75 bottles), digest in a 37 ℃ incubator for 1-2 minutes (digestion time can be appropriately extended for difficult to digest cells), and then observe the digestion of cells under a microscope. If most of the cells become round and fall off, quickly take them back to the operating table, tap the culture bottle a few times, and add 3-4ml of culture medium containing 10 μ S to terminate digestion. 3. Gently mix and aspirate, centrifuge at 1000RPM for 3-5 minutes, discard the supernatant, add 1-2mL of culture medium and blow evenly. Divide the cell suspension into new T25 bottles in a ratio of 1:2, add 6-8ml of new * culture medium prepared according to the instructions to maintain the growth vitality of the cells, and subsequently subculture according to the actual situation in a ratio of 1:2~1:5. 3) Cell cryopreservation: It is recommended to freeze a batch of cell seeds during the first 3 generations of culture after receiving the cells for subsequent experimental use. |
| Transportation form | Low temperature: (1) Transport 1mL frozen storage tube packaged with dry ice. After receiving it, store it in a -80 degree freezer overnight and transfer it to liquid nitrogen or directly recover it. If the dry ice has evaporated completely, the bottle cap of the frozen storage tube has fallen off, is damaged, and the cells are contaminated, please contact us immediately. At room temperature: (2) T25 bottles of revived surviving cells will be shipped at room temperature and processed according to the procedures for cell reception upon receipt. |
| Biosafety | 1. All animal cells are considered to have potential biological hazards and must be operated in a secondary biosafety platform. Please pay attention to protection, and all waste liquids and containers that have come into contact with these cells must be sterilized before disposal. 2. It is recommended to always use protective gloves, clothing, and a face mask when reviving frozen cells. Attention: The cryotube immersed in liquid nitrogen will leak and gradually fill with liquid nitrogen. When thawing, the conversion of liquid nitrogen into gas phase may cause the container to explode or the lid to be blown off with dangerous force, resulting in flying debris and causing personal injury. |
