Rat Primary Colonic Smooth Muscle Cells from Cell Biologics are isolated from colonic tissue of 1-day-old neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats. Rat Primary Colonic Smooth Muscle Cells are grown in T25 tissue culture flasks pre-coated with gelatin-based coating solution for 2 min and incubated in Cell Biologics Culture Complete Growth Medium generally for 3-7 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.

General Information
Rat Primary Colonic Smooth Muscle Cells are characterized by immunofluorescent method with antibody to ?-smooth muscle actin. Rat Primary Colonic Smooth Muscle Cells are negative for bacteria, yeast, fungi, and mycoplasma. Cells can be expanded on a multiwell culture plate ready for experiments under the cell culture conditions specified by Cell Biologics (Cells may be expanded for 2 or 3 passages at a split ratio of 1:2 under the cell culture conditions specified by Cell Biologics). Repeated freezing and thawing of cells is not recommended.
