Description
Laboratories selecting a human glioblastoma cell line need clearly documented information on tissue origin, cellular morphology, growth pattern, culture medium, passaging, and cell identity before beginning routine culture. BF-SNU466 is a human brain-derived glioblastoma cell line established from a 61-year-old Asian male. The cells have spindle morphology and grow as a monolayer.
The BF-SNU466 cell line has a reported population doubling time of 54 hours and a recommended split ratio of 1:4. Its specified culture system uses RPMI 1640 containing L-glutamine, HEPES, and sodium bicarbonate, supplemented with fetal bovine serum. The documented culture conditions, subculturing procedure, freezing medium, and STR profile below provide laboratories with the reference information needed to plan the routine handling of BF-SNU466 cells.

Application
BF-SNU466 cells are intended for research involving a human brain-derived glioblastoma cell line with spindle morphology and a monolayer growth pattern.
Subculturing Procedure
- Remove the culture medium.
- Add fresh 0.25% trypsin and 0.02% EDTA solution.
- Keep the culture flask at 37°C for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Add culture medium and collect the cells.
- Transfer the cell suspension into a 15 mL tube and centrifuge.
- Aspirate the medium.
- Resuspend the cell pellet with culture medium and dispense the cells into a culture flask.
Media Change
Remove two-thirds of the medium and add fresh medium every 2 to 3 days, depending on cell density.
