Cynomolgus Monkey Primary Coronary Artery Fibroblasts from Cell Biologics are isolated from Cynomolgus Monkey coronary artery tissue and grown in gelatin pre-coated tissue culture flask with Cell Biologics Complete Growth Medium. Cells at passage 2-3 are harvested from flasks and cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains 0.5x10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen. Cynomolgus Monkey Primary Coronary Artery Fibroblasts from Cell Biologics are characterized by their spindle morphology and immunofluorescent staining with anti-fibroblast-specific protein 1 or anti-Vimentin antibody. These cells are negative for mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast, fungi, HIV-1, hepatitis B and hepatitis C and can be expanded for 3-5 passages at a split ratio of 1:2 under the cell culture conditions specified by Cell Biologics. Repeated freezing and thawing of cells are not recommended.

Disclaimer
Appropriate safety procedures should always be used with this material. Although Cynomolgus Monkey Primary Coronary Artery Fibroblasts are isolated from normal monkey tissue, investigators should handle the cells that they receive from Cell Biologics with caution and treat all primary cells as potential pathogens, since no test procedure can completely guarantee the absence of infectious agents.
