Description: Immortalized Human Submandibular Gland Cells are salivary gland cells located on the floor of the mouth and are responsible for the production of saliva. These cells are derived from neoplastic submandibular gland tissue and then further immortalized via cell cycle disruption and chemical interactions. These cells can be used for studies in salivary duct calculi (salivary stones) generation, as well as salivary gland carcinoma.Immortalization Method: N/ABioSafety Level: IISpecies: HumanSource Organ: OralGrowth Properties: Adherent Morphology: EpithelialPopulation Doubling: N/ASeeding Density: N/AMarkers: N/ADonor Age: N/ADonor Gender: N/ADonor Ethnicity: N/APropagation: The base medium for this cell line is Prigrow IV available from abm, Cat. No. TM004 . To make the completed growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum (TM999)* to a final concentration of 10%, 10ug/ml Gentamicin (G272), and Penicillin/Streptomycin Solution (G255). Carbon dioxide (CO2): 5%, Temperature: +37.0°C.
