问和答
Will improper storage of my tissue culture reagents affect the growth rate of my culture? Yes. Store animal sera at -5 to -20 degrees C. Store media at 2 to 8 degrees C; use within recommended shelf life period. Store complete media (supplemented) at 2 to 8 degrees C, and for complete medium the recommended shelf life is 2 to 4 weeks. Additionally, minimize exposure of sera and media to light.
Do I need to filter the serum before use?
No, there is no need to filter the serum before use. Gibco™ serum products are manufactured using the most stringent processes, including membrane filtration.
If my FBS arrives partially thawed, can I still use it?
Our studies have shown that short-term storage of thawed FBS at 4 degrees C for up to 28 days causes no decrease in growth or viability performance. FBS stored at 4 degrees C for longer periods of time should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis should this storage condition be necessary.
