Trypsin edta solution

Manufactured by Wisent
Sourced in Canada

Trypsin/EDTA solution is a cell culture reagent used to dissociate and detach adherent cells from a culture surface. It contains the enzyme trypsin, which cleaves the peptide bonds in the proteins that hold cells together, and EDTA, which chelates calcium and magnesium ions to facilitate cell detachment.

HEK293FT (RRID:CVCL_6911), MDA-MB-231 (RRID:CVCL_0062), MDA-MB-468 (RRID:CVCL_0419), MDA-MB-436 (RRID:CVCL_0623) and COV362 (RRID:CVCL_2420), cells were cultured in high-glucose Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) containing HEPES buffer, penicillin, and streptomycin (Wisent cat: 319-005-CL) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Wisent cat: 080-150). OVCAR8 (RRID:CVCL_1629) cells were cultured in high-glucose Roswell Park Memorial Institute's (RPMI) medium containing HEPES buffer, penicillin, and streptomycin (Wisent cat: 350-700-CL) supplemented with 10% FBS (Wisent cat: 080-150). SUM149PT (RRID:CVCL_3422), cells were cultured in Ham's F-12 (F12) medium mixture (Gibco cat: 31765035) supplemented with 5% FBS, 10 mM HEPES (Gibco cat: 15630080) 1 μg/ml hydrocortisone (Sigma cat: H0888) and 5 μg/ml insulin (Sigma cat: I-1882). MCF10A (RRID:CVCL_0598), cells were grown in a DMEM/F12 medium mixture (Gibco cat: 11320033) supplemented with 5% horse serum (Invitrogen: 16050-122), 20 ng/ml epidermal growth factor (EGF), 100 ng/ml Cholera toxin, 0.5 mg/ml hydrocortisone (Sigma cat: H0888) and 10 μg/ml insulin (Sigma cat: I-1882). Cell lines were passaged using 0.05% Trypsin-EDTA solution (Wisent cat: 325-542-EL) and grown in a humidified atmosphere at 37°C and 5% CO2.

Establishing MDA-MB-231 Breast Cancer Xenografts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In this study, MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines were used to grow tumours in the hind leg of female severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID)-B17 mice obtained from Charles River Canada. Cells obtained from the American Type Culture Collections (ATCC, MD, USA) were incubated at 37 °C in 5% CO2 in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Sigma-Aldrich) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin antibiotics (ThermoFisher Scientific). On reaching 80% confluency, a 0.05% Trypsin–EDTA solution (Wisent BioProducts) was used to trypsinize the cells in preparation for injection. For tumour induction, 5 × 106 cells/100 µL cells were re-suspended in Mg+/Ca+ Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline and were injected in the hind limb of the mice. It took about 4–6 weeks of xenografts to grow 5–10 mm and ready for treatment. A mixture of ketamine (100 mg/kg) andxylazine (5 mg/kg) was used to anesthetize animals during the injection of the cells and the therapy procedure. Throughout the experiments, mice were closely monitored by placing the heat lamps and heating pads nearer to prevent irregular body temperature. Each treatment group consisted of 4 or more than 4 animals.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
