ATCC? Number:50456?
Organism: Stephanoeca diplocostata Ellis
Isolation: rockpool at Le Cabellou near Concarneau, South Brittany, France, 1976
Depositors: BS Leadbeater
Biosafety Level:1
Shipped: frozen
Growth Conditions: Temperature: 15.0°C Duration: grown with mixed bacteria Protocol: ATCCNO: 50453 SPEC: Place frozen ampule in a 35C water bath directly upon its arrival. Do not allow the ampule to overheat. Agitate gently and when the ampule contents have completely thawed (approximately 2 minutes), aseptically transfer the contents to 15 ml of ATCCmedium 1361 (equilibrated to 15C) in a T-25 tissue culture flask. Screw the cap on tightly and incubate at 15C. Transfer the culture every 2-3 weeks in the following manner: Rub the surface of the flask with a sterile cotton swab to detach adherent cells and aseptically transfer a 0.25 ml aliquot to 15 ml of ATCCmedium 1361 in a T-25 flask.
Permits/Forms: In addition to the MTA mentioned above, other ATCC and/or regulatory permits may be required for the transfer of this ATCC material. Anyone purchasing ATCC material is ultimately responsible for obtaining the permits. Please click here for information regarding the specific requirements for shipment to your location.
