Organism Mus musculus, mouse
Cell Type myoblast myoblast
Product Format frozen
Morphology myoblast
Culture Properties adherent
Biosafety Level 1

Biosafety classification is based on U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their facilities comply with biosafety regulations for their own country.
Age fetus fetus
Strain Swiss
Applications
They are slightly responsive to acetylcholine.
To avoid this, the cells should be subcultured before they become confluent, and they should be recloned periodically with selection for myoblastic clones.
Karyotype modal number = 40
Tumorigenic Yes
Effects
Yes,
Comments
When confluent, the cells fuse to form multinucleated myotubes.
They are slightly responsive to acetylcholine.
The myoblastic component of the population will rapidly become depleted if the cells are allowed to become confluent, since more extensive fusion will take place.
To avoid this, the cells should be subcultured before they become confluent, and they should be recloned periodically with selection for myoblastic clones.
Complete Growth Medium Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium with 4 mM L-glutamine adjusted to contain 1.5 g/L sodium bicarbonate and 4.5 g/L glucose, 80%; horse serum, 10%; fetal bovine serum, 10%

Subculturing
Protocol: Remove medium, add fresh 0.25% trypsin, 0.53mM EDTA solution for 2 to 5 minutes, remove trypsin, add fresh medium, aspirate and dispense into new Bovine Collagen type l (0.03 mg/ml) coated flasks. Differentiation is enhanced by reducing the sera to 2% each.
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:2 to 1:4 is recommended
Medium Renewal: Twice per week
Culture Conditions
Temperature: 37.0°C
Population Doubling Time 17 to 19 hrs
Name of Depositor J Peacock
