Tuesday, June 29, 2004 Description This protocol describes how to freeze tissue culture cells (mammalian) in a way that they will be viable when thawed. Procedure 1. Aspirate media 2. Wash cells with PBS 3. Apply trypsin/EDTA (1ml for 15cm dish) 4. Incubate 5 min in TC incubator 5. Collect in PBS (amount does not matter - just enough to get all the cells suspended) 6. Take small sample to count cells. 7. Transfer suspended cells to 50ml conical tube 8. Pellet cells by centrifugation 1000g for 5 minutes 9. Resuspend in media supplemented with 20% FBS. Cells should be between 1x10^6 and 5x10^6 cells/ml. 10. Add DMSO to get 10% DMSO. 11. Put in 1.5 ml cryotubes and freeze at -80 degC for 3 hrs. 12. Transfer to LN2 tank. Recipes
