Product Overview
Description
iNeuCal™ calcium biosensor has been integrated into human neural progenitor cells. They respond to changes in intracellular calcium in the 605nm-625nm fluorescence range (excitation/emission = 610nm / 625nm) to measure the increase or decrease in intracellular calcium concentration. These calcium biosensors have an excellent signal-to-noise ratio and can operate in the range of seconds to minutes. They can be used in single cell applications as well as medium to high throughput screening platforms.

Mycoplasma Testing
The cell line has been screened using the luciferase based mycoplasma detection kit to confirm the absence of mycoplasma species.
Sterility Testing
Sterility testing was performed in accordance with USP and EP regulations. All of our sterility testing is performed in an isolator or clean room environments. The cell line has been screened using the membrane filtration testing methods to confirm the absence of aerobic, anaerobic and fungi microorganisms.
Genetic Stability Testing
Cell genetic stability study was perfomed under ICH guidelines. We provide guidance on the appropriate testing program upon your requirements.

Storage
Liquid Nitrogen
Handling Advice
Frozen cells: Upon receipt, frozen ampoules should be transferred directly to gaseous phase liquid nitrogen without delay, unless they are to be used straight away.
Growing cells: Growing cell cultures should be checked on receipt using an inverted microscope. Immediately check the cell density upon arrival for any obvious defects. If the cell density is too high (more than 80% confluent) subculture the cells (harvest and reseed) immediately.
For detailed instructions on the thawing procedure of frozen cells and the culture of adherent or suspended cells, please feel free to contact us by email or phone.
