Description

Specialized media, with ingredients and supplements optimized for the unique requirements of Human Chondrocytes (HC), providing optimal culture conditions, cell health, data integrity and reproducibility.
 
Use with:
CAI media are tested for sterility in order to confirm no bacteria, yeast or fungi contaminate the solutions.  The products undergo further quality control for correct pH, osmolality and lack of endotoxins. A panel of different bioassays affirm the media sustain a proper environment for expected cell-type-specific culture, growth, plating, karyotype, physiology, morphology, viability, population doublings, surface markers, cryopreservation, differentiation and/or induction.
 
Laboratory research use only (RUO). Not for human, clinical, diagnostic or veterinary use.
Human Chondrocyte Media for use with cartilage-producing cells.

Chondrocytes cultured in monolayer quickly lose their phenotypic characteristics and no longer express Collagen type II and sulfated proteoglycan. Encapsulation of de-differentiated chondrocytes for 3 to 4 weeks in alginate beads will induce re-differentiation and ECM production in chondrocytes.
  • Calcium Chloride Solution is formulated to induce polymerization of Sodium Alginate.
  • Chondrogenesis Kit contains all media & solutions for the encapsulization of chondrocytes in alginate beads
  • Sodium Alginate encapsulates chondrocytes to maintain their phenotypic characterization after isolation or to induce cultured chondrocytes to re-differentiate to chondrocytes.
  • Depolymerization Solution (DS) consists of sodium citrate, and dissolves alginate beads to release re-differentiated chondrocytes.
Instructions for Releasing Re-differentiated Chondrocytes from Alginate Beads
  1. Remove Chondrocyte Differentiation Medium
  2. Wash the beads 2 times with 0.155 M NaCl
  3. Add 3 volume of Depolymerizatiojn Solution per volume of packed alginate beads
  4. Mix at room temperature for 30 minutes
  5. Apply gentle agitation until the beads have completely dissolved
  6. Pellet re-differentiated chondrocytes at 1000 rpm for 10 minutes
  7. Wash the cells 2 times with 0.155 M NaCl
