Karyotype 2n = 46. The stemline chromosome number is hypotriploid with the 2S component occurring at 9.2%., Eleven markers [t(1;?) del (1)(p13), t(3;?), i(4q), t(8;?), t(9;?), M6, t(1;11), t(21;22), M13, and t(20;?)] and 1 to 3 small chromosome fragments were common to most S metaphases., At least one Y chromosome was always detectable. Number 3 was nullisomic. Neither homogenously staining regions (HSR) nor double minutes (DM) were seen.

Comments
Contains the unusual type A isoenzyme of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase.
Complete Growth Medium Minimum essential medium (Eagle) with 2 mM L-glutamine and Earle's BSS adjusted to contain 1.5 g/L sodium bicarbonate, 0.1 mM non-essential amino acids, and 1.0 mM sodium pyruvate, 90%; fetal bovine serum, 10%
Subculturing
Remove medium, rinse with fresh 0.25% trypsin, 0.02% EDTA solution, remove trypsin and let the culture sit at room temperature (or at 37°C) until the cells detach (about 10 minutes).
Add fresh medium, aspirate and dispense into new flasks. Subculture every 6 to 8 days.
