A549 cells (a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line) and H2170 cells (squamous cell carcinoma cell lines) were purchased from American Type Culture Collection (USA) and PC9 cells (a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line) was purchased from Immuno‐Biological Laboratories Co. (Japan). H226 cells (human lung squamous cell carcinoma cell lines) were obtained from Dr J. D. Minna (University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, USA) and Dr M. Akiyama (Radiation Effects Research Foundation, Japan), respectively. AB1‐HA cells (a murine malignant mesothelioma cell line), a transfectant with the gene encoding influenza HA into an AB1 cells, were purchased from Public Health England (UK). Tumor cell lines were maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% heat‐inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS), penicillin (100 U/mL) and streptomycin (50 μg/mL). All cells were cultured at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air.

Microscopic Imaging of Diverse Cell Types

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To verify the functionality of microscopic system for cells/tissues imaging, various biological samples were tested. They include (i) plant cell imaging: grape skin (exocarp) and grape flesh (mesocarp); and (ii) animal cell imaging: human RBCs and lung cancer cells (H2170 cell line). Image focusing was done by manual adjustment of the sample stage, with other optical components fixed.

RBCs: To prevent RBC aggregation that could obscure imaging quality assessment, 10 μl of RBCs was diluted to 0.9X concentration with 15 μl deionized water and 75 μl PBS-EDTA-BSA mixture. PBS was used to prevent osmotic cellular rupture. EDTA functioned as an anti-clotting agent of RBCs.

H2170: The H2170 cells (from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC)) were cultured in the tissue culture flasks (surface area of 75cm2) (TPP), which was placed in a CO2 incubator with 5% CO2 under 37 °C. The full culture medium was ATCC modified RPMI-1640 (Gibco) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Gibco) and 1% antibiotic–antimycotic (Gibco). Depending on cell confluency observed by a standard light microscope, passage or medium replacement was performed 2–3 times each week.

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.
