- Subculture routine: Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:3 to 1:6 i.e. seeding at 2-4x10,000 cells/cm² using 0.05% trypsin or trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO₂; 37°C. C70 cells grow slowly. Following resuscitation or subculture the cells take at least 48 hours to re-attach. Cells should be left without disturbance during this time to facilitate adhesion. Once attached, the cells grow in discrete islands and use of trypsin or trypsin/EDTA to subculture the cells yields large clumps. Further disaggregation may be achieved by repeatedly pipetting the cells.
