Rat Primary Coronary Artery Fibroblasts from Cell Biologics are isolated from coronary artery tissue of 1-day-old neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats. Rat Primary Coronary Artery Fibroblasts are grown in T75 tissue culture flasks pre-coated with gelatin-based coating solution for 2 min and incubated in Cell Biologics Culture Complete Growth Medium generally for 2-5 days. Cultures are then expanded. Prior to shipping, cells are detached from flasks and immediately cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains at least 1x106 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.
