Preparation of Poly-D-Lysine Hydrobromide Stock Solution (1 mg/ml)
Poly-d-lysine promotes the adhesion and good growth of mammalian cells to the glass/plastic dishes. Here we describe a procedure to prepare a 1 mg/ml stock solution of Poly-d-lysine. The easiest way to prepare the solution is to buy a 5 mg poly-d-lysine (pack-size) and dissolve all of them in autoclaved sterile miliQ water without weighing it out. This stock solution can be used for coating glass coverslips to allow cells to grow adherently.
