Product Description
Rat Primary Pulmonary Vein Fibroblasts from Cell Biologics are isolated from the Pulmonary Vein of 6-8 week old laboratory Sprague–Dawley rat and grown in gelatin pre-coated tissue culture flask with Cell Biologics’ Complete Growth Medium. Cells at passage 2-3 are harvested from flasks and cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains 0.5x106 cells per ml and is delivered frozen. Rat Primary Pulmonary Vein Fibroblasts are characterized by their spindle morphology and immunofluorescent staining with anti-Vimentin antibody. These cells are negative for bacteria, yeast, fungi, and mycoplasma and 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 are not recommended.

Cryopreserved cells are shipped with dry ice overnight. Upon arrival, transfer frozen cells to liquid nitrogen (-180°C) immediately until ready for use. Live cell shipment is also available on request. Primary cells can never be kept at -20 °C or -80 °C freezer.
