Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ewing sarcoma cell lines TC-71 (RRID: CVCL_2213 and SK-N-MC RRID: CVCL_0530) were purchased from DSMZ (Braunschweig, Germany). LAP-35 (RRID: CVCL_A096) was a generous gift from Drs. Katia Scotlandi and Cristina Manara. The absence of mycoplasma contamination was verified every two months by PCR analysis. Cells were maintained in culture in Iscove’s modified Dulbecco’s medium (IMDM) (GIBCO—Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, USA, Massachusetts), supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, and penicillin and streptomycin (GIBCO) and maintained at 37 °C in humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. For doxorubicin treatment, Ewing sarcoma cells were treated for the indicated time with either DMSO or the indicated concentrations of doxorubicin (ranging from 0.1 nM to 150 nM).

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.
