Human ovarian cancer cell line OVCAR5 (female) was obtained from American Type Culture Collection. A2780 (female) was acquired from European Collection of Cell Cultures. OVCA433 (female) ovarian serous adenocarcinoma cell line was a generous gift from Dr. Marcin Iwanicki (Stevens Institute of Technology, Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, NJ USA). OVCAR5 and A2780 were grown in RPMI-1640 medium (Corning, catalogue No. 10-040-CM). OVCA433 (Iwanicki et al., 2016)39 (link) were cultured in 1:1 mixture of MCDB 105 (Cell Applications, catalogue No. 117–500) medium and Medium 199 (Gibco, catalogue No. 11150059). All media were supplemented with fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gemini Bio-products, catalogue No. 900–208) and penicillin-streptomycin solution (Corning, catalogue No. 30-002-Cl) at the final concentrations of 10% and 1%, respectively, unless stated otherwise. Cells were kept in a humidified incubator with 5% CO2 at 37 °C. All cells were tested for mycoplasma infection (MycoAlert Mycoplasma Detection Kit, Lonza, catalogue No. LT07-218) and found to be negative. Cells were counted by means of Bright-Line Hemacytometer (Sigma, catalogue No. Z359629).

Human ovarian cancer cell lines, CaOV3 (female), OV90 (female) and OVCAR5 (female) were obtained from American Type Culture Collection. A2780 (female) was acquired from European Collection of Cell Cultures. Kuramochi (female) and OVSAHO (female) cells were a generous gift from Dr. Kristi Egland (Sanford Research, South Dakota). Primary high grade ovarian cancer cells (DF30, female) were isolated as previously described (Davidowitz et al., 2014 (link)). CaOV3 were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified essential medium (Corning, catalog No. 10–013-CV). OV90, OVCAR5 and A2780 were grown in RPMI-1640 medium (Corning, catalog No. 10–040-CM). KURAMOCHI, OVSAHO, DF30 (Iwanicki et al., 2016 ) were cultured in 1:1 mixture of MCDB 105 (Cell Applications, catalog No. 117–500) medium and Medium 199 (GIBCO, catalog No. 11150059). All media were supplemented with fetal bovine serum (Gemini Bio-products, catalog No. 900–208) and penicillin-streptomycin solution (Corning, catalog No. 30–002-Cl) at the final concentrations 10% and 1%, respectively.

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.
