BAMBANKER series.

The products we offer are manufactured in GMP-compliant facilities.

We ship products that have been tested and confirmed safe for sterility through endotoxin, mycoplasma negativity, fungal, and bacterial tests.

In June 2015, we also obtained a license for the manufacture of specific cellular processed products in Japan.

Comparative video of preservation efficiency of mouse fibroblast cell line

Bambanker®

Self-prepared preservative solution (FBS containing 10% DMSO)

Experimental conditions • Cells used: Mouse fibroblast cell lines (MEF obtained from American Type Culture Collection) • Number of cells stored: 4×106 cells/vial. Each cell was suspended in 1 ml of preservative solution. • Storage temperature: -80ºC. Cells were directly placed in a storage box and cooled without using BICELL, etc. • Storage period: 45 days

A number of dead cells as well as stagnation of growth potential were observed in self-prepared preservative solution; however, Bambanker® showed vigorous cell proliferation ability immediately after thawing, and survival of almost all cells was confirmed. (For details, refer to the user’s report at the top of the page)

BAMBANKER® is a serum-free medium for long-term freezing at -80℃ and preservation of valuable culture cells such as tumor and normal cells.

＜For Research Use Only＞

Features

1. Serum-free
2. Ready-to-use medium for preservation of cells
3. No program freezer is required
4. Rapid and long-term freezing and preservation in a deep freezer
5. zUsable for 2years at 2～4℃

Operating Procedure

1. Centrifuge the cells in logarithmic growth phase and collect 5×105 ～ 1×107cells.
2. Suspend the collected cells in 1mL of this medium and place the cells in cryotubes for freezing and preservation. Then freeze and preserve the cells at -80℃ without preliminary freezing. The cells frozen at -80℃ can be preserved subsequently in liquid nitrogen.
3. Thawing must be carried out quickly in a constant-temperature chamber or bath.

★ The cells must be frozen in logarithmic growth phase.
