Description
Laboratories selecting a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line need clearly documented information on tissue origin, cellular morphology, growth pattern, culture medium, freezing medium, and cell identity before beginning routine culture. BF-HCC2108 is a human lung-derived adenocarcinoma cell line established from a 59-year-old male. The cells have epithelial morphology and grow as a monolayer.
The BF-HCC2108 cell line uses an RPMI 1640-based culture medium supplemented with heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum. The documented culture information includes the medium formulation, freezing medium, media-change interval, available subculture information, and a 10-locus STR profile. These specifications allow laboratories to review the reported characteristics of BF-HCC2108 cells before use.
