Comments |
G-401 was deposited as a cell line derived from a Wilms'''''''' tumor. Due to a change in the classification of such tumors, the cell line was examined by Garvin et al. and found to be more appropriately classified as derived from a rhabdoid tumor of the kidney. Ref

Background
Complete Growth Medium |
The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated McCoy''''''''s 5a Medium Modified, Catalog No. 30-2007. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%. |

Subculturing |
Remove medium, and rinse with 0.25% trypsin, 0.53 mM EDTA solution. Remove the solution and add an additional 1 to 2 mL of trypsin-EDTA solution. Allow the flask to sit at room temperature (or at 37¡ãC) until the cells detach. Add fresh culture medium, aspirate and dispense into new culture flasks.
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:2 to 1:6 is recommended
Medium Renewal: 2 to 3 times per week
