| | DSMZ Cell Culture Data: |
| Morphology: | large transparent epitheloid cells, partially with long extensions, growing as monolayers; image; image; image; image |
| Medium: | 80% RPMI 1640 + 20% h.i. FBS |
| Subculture: | seed out at ca. 0.5-1 x 106 cells/175cm2; cells grow rather slowly after thawing; later, split culture 1:3 every 3-6 days (before reaching confluency) using trypsin/EDTA; confluency of the culture might result in reduced growth rate after passaging. |

| Harvest: | maximum cell harvest of ca. 4 x 106 cells/175 cm2 |
| Storage: | frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO |
| | DSMZ Scientific Data: |
| Mycoplasma: | negative in microbiological culture, PCR assays |
| Immunology: | To inquire about expression of EpCAM and intermediate filaments, contact ulfert.rand@dsmz.de. |
| Authenticity: | STR analysis according to the global standard ANSI/ATCC ASN-0002.1-2021 (2021) resulted in an authentic STR profile of the reference STR database. |
| Cytogenetics: | human flat moded hypotetraploid karyotype with 20% polyploidy - 78-87<4n>XX, -3, -4, -4, +5, +7, +7, -10, -10, -12, -12, -15, -19, +20, +20, +20, -21, +1-2mar, +0-4 dmin, add(1)(p11), del(5)(q13), add(16)(p13), del(16)(p13.2) - sideline with i(3q) |
