Propagation:

Use of Gelatin Coating Solution is required for cell adhesion to the culture vessels. Grow cells in gelatin-coated culture vessels with the following conditions.
The base medium for this cell line is Prigrow IV medium available at abm. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 5%, Penicillin/Streptomycin Solution to a final concentration of 1%, Recombinant Human FGF2 to a final concentration of 10 ng/ml, Recombinant Human GH1 to a final concentration of 10 ng/ml, and Recombinant Human HGF to a final concentration of 10 ng/ml.
Change media every 2-3 days.
Carbon dioxide (CO₂): 5%, Temperature: 37.0°C.
Do not use heat-inactivated FBS for cell culture unless specified otherwise.
