Propagation: The base medium for this cell line is Prigrow IV medium available at abm, Cat. No. TM004. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum (TM999)* to a final concentration of 10% and Penicillin/Streptomycin Solution (G255) to a final concentration of 1%.
Carbon dioxide (CO₂): 5%, Temperature: +37.0°C. * abm does not recommend to use heat-inactivated FBS for cell culture unless specified otherwise.

Quality Control: Real Time PCR was used to quantify SV40 gene expression in immortalized cell line.

Shipping Condition: Dry Ice

Storage Condition: liquid nitrogen or -180°C
