Production details: MCF7/S9 has been established by gradually adapting MCF7 cells to grow at a low serum concentration before transfer to serum-free medium. Since passage no. 387, the cell line has been propagated in phenol red-free DMEM/F12 (1:1) without addition of serum or any growth factor (standard medium for MCF7/S9), in T-flasks coated with collagen. The MCF7/S9 was subcultured once a week with a split ratio of approximately 1:10 and growth medium was changed every second or third day.
