Human Primary Esophageal Cancer Cells

Cell Details

Esophageal cancer is one of the six most common malignant tumors in the world, and China is one of the high-incidence areas. Esophageal cancer is a malignant tumor that occurs in the esophageal epithelium. The cells are mainly polygonal, varying in size, rich in cytoplasm, and the nucleus is round or oval and varies in size. In addition, studies have shown that most of the tumor cells from the epithelium are present in keratin. Isolation and culture of esophageal cancer cells in vitro laid the experimental foundation for studying the biological characteristics and carcinogenesis mechanism of esophageal cancer.

Cell Characteristics

1) The cells are derived from human esophageal cancer tissue.

2) Does not contain HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi.

3) Cell growth mode: polygonal, irregular cells, adherent culture.

Transportation and Preservation

Depending on the weather conditions and the distance of transportation, the company negotiates with the customer and chooses one of the following methods.

1) 1mL of frozen cell suspension is placed in a 1.8mL cryotube and placed in a foam incubator filled with dry ice for transport; after receiving the cells, thaw the resuscitated cells as soon as possible for culture. If resuscitation is not possible immediately, Cryopreserved cells can be stored at -80°C for 1 month.
2) T-25 culture flask is filled with complete medium and then transported at room temperature. After receiving the cells, please observe the growth state of the cells under a microscope. If the bottle filling rate exceeds 85%, please carry out the subculture immediately. If there are more cells in suspension, allow the flask to stand overnight in the incubator to help the undead suspension cells to reattach.
