Cell Line Origin
Mouse 129 embryo teratocarcinoma
Cell Line Description
Derived from testicular carcinoma. F9 undergo very limited differentiation under normal conditions but can be induced to differentiate into parietal endoderm in the presence of retinoic acid and dibutyryl cAMP.
Application
Differentiation studies
Culture Medium
DMEM + 2mM Glutamine + 10-15% Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS). Pre-soak flasks in 0.1% gelatin for over 2 hours and wash with PBS.
Subculture Routine
Split sub-confluent cultures (70-80%) 1:3 to 1:6 i.e. seeding at 2-4x10,000 cells/cm2 using 0.25% trypsin or trypsin/EDTA; 5% CO2, 37°C. Upon resuscitation, cells shed large quantities of debris, leave for 2 days before subculture. Please note: Culture v
