Product description: NCH57 is a patient-derived gliosarcoma cell line established from a primary WHO grade IV tumour resected from a 60 year old male patient. Gliosarcoma represents a rare variant of glioblastoma. Cells grow as adherent monolayer cultures under standard conditions.
Production details: Patient-derived cell line established from human tumour tissue obtained during surgical resection and expanded in vitro.
Growth medium: DMEM (high glucose) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS), 1% GlutaMAX, and 1% penicillin/streptomycin.
Subculture routine: Cells are passaged at sub-confluent densities using 0.05% Trypsin-EDTA. After enzymatic detachment, trypsin is neutralised with serum-containing medium and cells are reseeded into fresh culture vessels. Passage number should be recorded.
Temperature: 37°C
