In Topic: BaF3 cell culture in 96 well plates

Welcome to the forums.

What sort of density are you seeding the cells at in the wells vs in the flasks?

Ratio of medium : cells?

That sort of behaviour (the sticking to the bottom) is often a sign of differentiation in these sorts of lines IIRC, which is what makes me think it is something to do with seeding density.


Hi Bob.

Thanks for your message.

Seeding density is the same as in the bottles and range from about 5 X 10^4 to 5 X 10^5 cells/ml, which is what we were told keeps the cells from developing e.g. IL3-independent growth...

Thanks again.

In Topic: Characterizing an unknown plasmid

07 December 2012 - 01:34 PM

You received already a lot of good advice here, and I just want to mention one option: If you use the plasmid to express a gene and if you know what gene it is, you could try to amplify the gene with PCR for cloning into a standard plasmid in your lab. This would not only allow for easy sequencing after the cloning but over time you would acquire all your genes in the same standard vectors which makes your life easier...
