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.

Detailed product information

Characteristics

Comments
This item is a mycoplasma free preparation derived from VR-583 following treatment to remove mycoplasma. VR-583 will no longer be distributed when current inventory is depleted. Strain DN-19 is considered to be an antigenic variant or "prime" of Human coxsackievirus A 24. It was originally known as Echovirus 34.
Mycoplasma contamination
Not detected

Handling information

Host
Alternate Hosts: Human embryonic kidney cells, human aorta cells (A-39)
Effects
cell rounding; cell sloughing; CPE
Complete medium
EMEM (ATCC® 30-2003™) + 2% FBS (ATCC® 30-2020™)
Temperature
37°C
Atmosphere
95% Air, 5% CO2
Incubation
Incubate at 37°C in a humidified, 5% CO2 atmosphere for 2-4 days, until CPE are well advanced in 100% of the culture. Harvest cells and culture fluids; cell debris can be removed by centrifugation if desired.
Recommendation for infection
For best results, plate cells 24-48 hours in advance. Infect at 80%-90% confluence using a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 0.1 to 1.0. Incubate at 37°C in a humidified, 5% CO2 atmosphere for 2-4 days, until CPE are well advanced in 100% of the culture.  Harvest cells and culture fluids; cell debris can be removed by centrifugation if desired.
