TIB-192
Comments:
Established in vitro from spontaneous myeloid leukemia of SL strain mice.
Can be induced to become macrophage-like by a variety of stimulating agents including dexamethasone, LPS and WEHI-3 conditioned medium.
Tested and found negative for ectromelia virus (mousepox).
Propagation:
ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated RPMI-1640 Medium, Catalog No. 30-2001. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%.
Subculturing:
Medium Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days
Cultures can be maintained by addition or replacement of fresh medium. Start cultures at 1 x 10 exp5 cells/ml and maintain between 1 x 10 exp5 and 1 x 10 exp6 cells/ml.
