| Cell line: | VIP-VIIIC8 |
| DSMZ no.: | ACC 479 |
| Species: | murine (mouse) (Mus musculus) |
| Cell type: | hybridoma (CD2) |
| Origin: | described as secreting a mouse monoclonal antibody (IgG2a) CD2; the cell line was established in 1987 by fusion of PX63AG8.653 cells with spleen cells of a mouse immunized with fresh peripheral blood lymphocytes from patients with expansions of gamma-delta Tcells |
| Reference(s): | not published |
| Biosafety level: | 1 |
| Permissions and restrictions: | A |
| | DSMZ Cell Culture Data: |
| Morphology: | single round cells growing in suspension; image; image; image |
| Medium: | 80% DMEM (4.5 g/L glucose) + 20% h.i. FBS + HFCS ("Hybridoma Fusion and Cloning Supplement") |
| Subculture: | split saturated cultures 1:2 to 1:3 every 3 days; seed out at 0.8 x 106 cell/ml, best in 12-well-plate with HFCS; maintain at 0.3-0.5 x 106 cells/ml; some cells attach to the surface of the culture flask, but can be detached by tapping the flask; for the first 2 weeks, HFCS should be used which thereafter can be reduced to 50% or 25% of the recommended concentration; cells grow very slowly in the complete absence of HFCS |
| Incubation: | at 37°C with 10% CO2 |
| Doubling time: | about 40-50 hours |
| Harvest: | maximal density of about 1 x 106 cells/ml |
| Storage: | frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO |
| | DSMZ Scientific Data: |
| Mycoplasma: | negative in DAPI, microbiological culture, RNA hybridization, PCR assays |
| Immunology: | secretion of a IgG2a monoclonal antibody |
| Species validation: | Species-level identification was carried out by mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase Subunit 1 (COI) DNA barcoding according standard ANSI/ATCC ASN-0003-2015 and revealed Mus musculus species. |
| Viruses: | ELISA: reverse transcriptase negative; PCR: SMRV - |
