Enabling – A breakthrough technology now exists for the preparation and


cryopreservation of mammalian neuronal cells for use as primary cell cultures
for basic discovery, development studies, or screening applications. Frozen
primary neuronal cells revolutionize cell culture research because they can be
simply thawed and cultured on demand to obtain high quality and high yield
cultures of dissociated primary neurons.

do neuronal primary cell culture, eliminating costly and time consuming
animal care requirements and allowing you to control the experimental/assay
timetable. Perform your primary cell culture with greater speed, convenience and
reproducibility.

Reproducible – Freshly dissociated or cultured primary neuronal cells do


not survive shipping. However, cryopreserved neuronal cells can be shipped
anywhere and used any time. Specific lots can now be archived, so researchers
can re-visit past experiments – on the same batch of cells. This can’t be done
any other way.

– The cryopreserved cells can be stored in liquid nitrogen
until they are needed. Once thawed, the cells can be
cultured in a variety of different conditions. To maintain
the monocyte phenotype, serum-containing medium is
recommended (10% FBS is generally recommended).
M-CSF (at 10 ng/ml) can also be added. To produce
osteoclasts, both soluble RANK ligand (30 ng/ml) and
M-CSF (30 ng/ml) need to be added to serum-containing
medium. To produce dendritic cells, a serum-free medium
such as LGM-3® Lymphocyte Growth Medium-3 should
be used, with the addition of GM-CSF (50 ng/ml) and

Safety Precautions with Clonetics® Cells

— As a precaution against contamination, follow all procedures for handling products of human origin outlined in
“Guidelines to Avoid Personnel Contamination By Infective Agents in Research Laboratories That Use Human Tissues,”
from the J. of Tissue Culture Methods.
— Always wear gloves and safety glasses when working with all materials. Exercise caution when working with cryopreserved
cells; rapid temperature changes may cause splattering of liquid nitrogen.
— Wash hands thoroughly after performing all procedures.
— Do not smoke, eat or drink in areas where reagents or cells are handled.
— Never pipette by mouth.
— Products of human and animal origin are potential biohazards. Although provided human cells negative for HIV-1,
Hepatitis B and C, proper precautions must be taken to avoid inadvertent exposure.
WARNING: Clonetics® and Poietics® Products contain human sourced material. Treat as potentially infectious.

disposable tips, can be loaded on the 96-well Shuttle® System and retrieved after the
Nucleofection® Process using the robotic manipulator. The 96-well Shuttle® Software is
controlled by Tecan’s Freedom EVOware® Robotics Control Software using the interface
provided by Lonza.
Rapid, Precise and Reliable Liquid Handling
The freely configurable Freedom EVO® Workstation can accommodate a wide range
of modules, including the robotic manipulator arm to transfer plates to and from
the 96-well Shuttle® System. Integrating the 96-well Shuttle® System and a robotic
incubator with the Freedom EVO® Workstation completely substitutes all manual steps
for cell preparation and transfection, generating consistent reproducible results. The
platform can process a 96-well Nucleocuvette® Plate in just minutes, depending on
the protocol used.

The Freedom EVO® Workstation is available in different sizes and with a variety of
options, including:
■ Liquid handling arm with fixed or disposable (filter) tips
■ Multichannel pipettors for plating cells or direct transfer of compounds
from plate to plate

Promoter studies in primary B cells prove that NF-κB regulates the activity

co-transfected with a CAT reporter plasmid driven by wild-type (WT) CR2
promoter, and plasmids encoding NF-κB subunit p50 or p65 or a control
plasmid. Cells were assayed for CAT activity 15 hours post Nucleofection®.
Values represent percentage of CAT activity, considering the activity of the

The results demonstrate that both NF-κB subunits clearly induce CAT activity.

[Invitrogen]. Oxidized linoleic acid metabolites (like 9-HODE, 9-hydroxy-

in large amounts in atherosclerotic plaque, are able to specifically induce
differentiation of human monocytes to macrophages accompanied by
a switch of chemokine receptor expression (CCR2-off and CX3CR1-on).
CX3CR1 then mediates macrophage adhesion to coronary artery smooth
muscle cells (CASMCs). The effects of the lipids on receptor expression are
mediated by the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor
(PPAR) gamma. Down regulation of PPARgamma with sRNAi (200 nM,
[Invitrogen]) dramatically reduced receptor switch (B) and consequently
macrophage adhesion to CASMCs in an adhesion assay (C). (Data extracted

Because the ToxiLight® BioAssay Kit exploits the fact that ■ Applications
AK is released from cells when they die, there is no need – Cytotoxicity studies

compatible with reporter gene constructs, thus facilitating
measurement of cytotoxicity and gene expression in the
same sample.
All the components required for AK detection are contained
within a single reagent making the assay very simple to
perform. The kit provides outstanding sensitivity with a
detection limit of 10 cells per microwell with a dynamic
range of over 3 orders of magnitude.
A 100% Lysis Control Set (sold separately) is available for
determining the total AK activity in the reaction.
— Highly sensitive – Exploits the cyclic nature of the AK
reaction whereby a small amount of the AK enzyme
can generate high concentrations of ATP; this enables
the detection of very subtle changes in cytotoxicity
and reduces false negatives
— Non-destructive – Detects cellular AK present in cell
culture supernatants, eliminating the need to lyse cells
to perform the assay, and allowing multiple tests to be
performed on the same sample
— Simple – Assay requires the addition of a single reagent,
which can be added directly to wells in which cells are
growing, or to a small aliquot of culture supernatant

Determination of Cell Numbers

Counting cells by use of a hemacytometer is a convenient


and practical method of determining cell numbers in
suspension culture or from dispersed monolayer cultures.
The hemacytometer consists of two chambers, each of
which is divided into nine 1.0 mm squares. A cover glass
is supported 0.1 mm over these squares so that the total
volume over each square is 1.0 mm × 0.1 mm or 0.1 mm3,
or 10 –4 cm3. Since 1 cm3 is approximately equivalent to
1 ml, the cell concentration per ml will be the average
count per square × 104.

Hemacytometer counts are subject to the following


sources of error:
= count; = do not count
1. Unequal cell distribution in the sample.
Diagram of a hemacytometer, improved Neubauer ruling, 0.1 mm deep
2. Improper filling of chambers. Brackets indicate 1 mm2 squares. Circle is the approximate area covered at
100X magnification.
3. Failure to adopt a convention for counting cells in
contact with boundary lines or with each other. error is approximated by the square root of the total count.
4. Statistical error. A common convention is to count cells that touch the
middle line (of the triple lines) to the left and top of the
square, but not to count cells similarly located to the right

Continue stirring until completely dissolved.
5. While stirring, adjust the pH to 0.2 – 0.3 pH units
below the desired pH. Use 1 N HCl or 1 N NaOH. The pH
will normally rise 0.1 – 0.3 units during filtration.
6. Add additional deionized or distilled water to bring the

7. Sterilize immediately by filtration using a 0.22-micron
or smaller filter. To reduce the loss of CO2, positive
pressure (3 – 15 psi), with an inert gas (i.e., nitrogen)
should be used for filtering. The use of CO2 is not
recommended, as it will alter the pH of the medium.
8. After filtration, aseptically transfer into sterile
containers. Store medium at 2°C – 4°C in the dark until
ready to use.
