Documentation

ATCC determines the biosafety level of a material based on our risk assessment as guided by the current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is your responsibility to understand the hazards associated with the material per your organization’s policies and procedures as well as any other applicable regulations as enforced by your local or national agencies.

ATCC highly recommends that appropriate personal protective equipment is always used when handling vials. For cultures that require storage in liquid nitrogen, it is important to note that some vials may leak when submersed in liquid nitrogen and will slowly fill with liquid nitrogen. Upon thawing, the conversion of the liquid nitrogen back to its gas phase may result in the vial exploding or blowing off its cap with dangerous force creating flying debris. Unless necessary, ATCC recommends that these cultures be stored in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen rather than submersed in liquid nitrogen.

Comments
This luciferase expressing cell line was derived from parental line (ATCC CCL-213) by transduction with lentiviral vector encoding firefly luciferase gene (luc2) under control of EF-1 alpha promoter. This cell line was established through single cell cloning, and the cells constitutively express high levels of enzymatically active luciferase protein, which can be detected via in vitro and bioluminescence assays. The cells should be maintained in Blasticidin (4 µg/mL) containing medium in routine cell culture. It is recommended to remove Blasticidin prior to and during the experiment procedure when the cells co-cultured with other cell types in vitro. Daudi-Luc2 has been used as a target cancer cell for in vitro killing assay by CD20 CAR-T cells (tested at ATCC) and is expected to also work for CD19 CAR-T cells. Daudi-Luc2 has been verified to express high levels of CD20.

Handling information

Complete medium

The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated RPMI-1640 Medium (ATCC 30-2001). To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium:

  • Fetal bovine serum (FBS; ATCC 30-2020) to a final concentration of 10%
  • Blasticidin to a final concentration of 4 µg/mL
Temperature
37°C
Atmosphere
95% Air, 5% CO2
Handling procedure
To insure the highest level of viability, thaw the vial and initiate the culture as soon as possible upon receipt. If upon arrival, continued storage of the frozen culture is necessary, it should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at -70°C.  Storage at -70°C will result in loss of viability.

  1. Thaw the vial by gentle agitation in a 37°C water bath. To reduce the possibility of contamination, keep the O-ring and cap out of the water.  Thawing should be rapid (approximately 2 minutes).
  2. Remove the vial from the water bath as soon as the contents are thawed, and decontaminate by dipping in or spraying with 70% ethanol. All of the operations from this point on should be carried out under strict aseptic conditions.
  3. Transfer the vial contents to a centrifuge tube containing 9.0 mL complete culture medium and spin at approximately 125 x g for 5 to 7 minutes.
  4. Resuspend cell pellet with the recommended complete medium (see the specific batch information for the culture recommended dilution ratio) and dispense into a 25 cm2 or a 75 cm2 culture flask.  It is important to avoid excessive alkalinity of the medium during recovery of the cells.  It is suggested that, prior to the addition of the vial contents, the culture vessel containing the complete growth medium be placed into the incubator for at least 15 minutes to allow the medium to reach its normal pH (7.0 to 7.6).
  5. Incubate the culture at 37°C in a suitable incubator.  A 5% CO2 in air atmosphere is recommended if using the medium described on this product sheet.
Subculturing procedure
Cultures can be maintained by addition or replacement of fresh medium. Alternatively the cells may be collected by centrifugation. Cultures can then be established by resuspending the cells in fresh medium at 3 to 5 X 105 viable cells/mL. Maintain cell density between 3 X 105 and 2 to 3 X 106 cells/mL.

Medium Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days (depending on cell density).
Reagents for cryopreservation
Complete growth medium supplemented with 5% (v/v) DMSO
