iPSC‐derived cardiomyocytes were collected from the bioreactor on Day 14, washed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS)−/− (ThermoFisherScientific) once and resuspended in Liberase solution (50 μg/ml; Roche) and incubated at 37°C for 30 min. The aggregates were triturated every 15 min using 10 ml serological pipettes (Corning). Following dissociation, an equal volume of growth medium (RPMI‐1640 + B27 with insulin) was added to the cell suspension to dilute the Liberase. The cells were centrifuged at 200g for 3 min at room temperature. Following centrifugation, the supernatant was removed and discarded. TrypLE solution was added to the cells and incubated for 7–8 min at 37°C. The enzyme was subsequently diluted by adding equal volume of growth medium. Viable cell counts were performed with the NC‐200 and the cells centrifuged at 200g for 3 min at 4°C. The supernatant was removed, discarded and the cell pellet was resuspended in CryoStor CS10 (BioLife Solutions) supplemented with 10 μM Y‐27632 at 5 × 106 cells/ml. Cryovials (ThermoFisherScientific) were filled at 1.0 ml and cryopreserved using a Controlled Rate Freezer (ThermoFisherScientific).

Cell culture-grade chemicals were used in this study. Low glucose Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (LG-DMEM) and FBS were acquired from Bio West, Nuaillé, France. Penicillin–streptomycin, Amphotericin-B, and trypsin-EDTA (0.5% and 5.3 mM w/v, respectively) were obtained from Caisson, Smithfield, UT, USA. Minimum essential medium-alpha (α-MEM) was purchased from Gibco, Carlsbad, CA, USA, and Ex-Cyte from Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA. Insulin (3.5 mg [100 IU]/mL) was obtained from Novo Nordisk, Søborg, Denmark. MTT dye, collagenase type I, and TRIZOL (TriQuick, Catalogue #R1100) reagent were obtained from Solarbio, Fengtai, China. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), formalin, Triton X–100, isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX), Dulbecco phosphate buffer saline (DPBS−/−; without Ca2+ and Mg2+), and Alizarin Red S stain (ARS) were procured from Sigma-Aldrich, Taufkirchen, Germany. The antifade mounting media was obtained from Vecta Shield, St. Neots, UK. The cDNA synthesis kit (Catalogue # cDSK01-100) was purchased from Vivantis Technologies, Selangor, Malaysia. SYBR green master mix and Oil red O (ORO) were obtained from Thermo Scientific, Chino, CA, USA. T-25, and T-75 cell culture flasks, serological pipettes, 6-well, 24-well, and 48-well cell culture plates, and cell strainers were received from Corning, NY, USA.

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.
