MPEK-BL6

CnT Murine Epidermal Keratinocyte Progenitors, Long-Term

CELLnTEC’s long-term mouse keratinocytes are spontaneously transformed cells that provide the convenience of long-term cell growth without senescence.

Catalog MPEK-BL6
Content Vial containing 0.5 million viable cells, frozen

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • High-quality cells
  • Pre-equilibrated in CELLnTEC base chemistry
  • Extended lifespan of the cells

Description

Mouse epidermal keratinocyte progenitor cells, cryo-preserved at approx. passage 30. To obtain the guaranteed growth, we recommend growing cells in our CnT-NX-E medium. Optionally CnT-PR or CnT-07 can be used.

Scientific resources

MPEK-BL6 long-term mouse keratinocytes are isolated from normal C57BL/6 mouse skin and have not been actively transformed. These long-term keratinocytes have been widely characterized in the literature and they retain the ability to differentiate.

CELLnTEC’s Long-Term cells are provided at approx. passage 30 and come with a guarantee of at least 6 months of growth post-delivery.

As with all cell cultures that deliver long-term growth, it is recommended to expand the cells after initial delivery, then freeze-down a group of stock vials. Experiments should then be conducted in the subsequent approx. 15-20 passages after thawing each of the stock vials.

Once 15-20 passages have been completed, the culture should be discarded and a new culture started from a fresh stock vial.
