Protocol – Passaging/Subculturing Suspension Culture

Suspension culture is passaged by diluting the existing culture. Since cells float in the medium in suspension culture, they are not treated with a trypsin-EDTA solution. To subculture a suspension cell line, a small amount of cell suspension from the existing culture is transferred to a culture dish containing fresh growth medium.

Cryopreservation of Cells

Cryopreservation is an efficient way to preserve cells at ultra-low temperatures (below -135°C) which stops all physiological processes and biological aging. It is a routinely used technique in all cell culture laboratories.
