Karyotype
This cell line has the normal female karyotype, 46,XX. The modal chromosome number was 46, occurring in 84% of cells, and the rate of polyploidy was 2.8%.The X chromosome was paired. There were no consistent aberrations in all analyzed cells.
Clinical Data
The tissue donor suffered from Gardner's syndrome, a form of Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP).

Tumorigenic
No
Effects
No, The cells were not tumorigenic in immunosuppressed mice, but did form colonies in semisolid medium.
Comments
The tissue donor suffered from Gardner's syndrome, a form of Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). It is an autosomal dominant condition with predisposition to carcinoma and multiple polyps of the colon.
Complete Growth Medium
The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium, Catalog No. 30-2003. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 20%.
Subculturing
Protocol:
Remove and discard culture medium.
Briefly rinse the cell layer with 0.25% (w/v) Trypsin- 0.53 mM EDTA solution to remove all traces of serum which contains trypsin inhibitor.
Add 2.0 to 3.0 ml of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes).
Note: To avoid clumping do not agitate the cells by hitting or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal.
Add 6.0 to 8.0 ml of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting.
Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
Incubate cultures at 37°C.
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:2 to 1:3 is recommended
