FreezingandThawingcells
Freezing and Thawing cellsFreezingIt is best to freeze cells that are growing rapidly. With adherent cells, it is easiest to set up 100 mm dishes, give them fresh medium the day before you freeze them, and freeze them just as they become confluent. If you are working with suspension cells, make sure that they are growing vigorously before you freeze them. 1. Trypsinize the cells if necessary, and then spin ......阅读全文
