      • Rotation speed: 0.3 to 0.5 rpm

*Note: These parameters are general recommendations; optimize conditions based on specific cell lines.

Cell Harvesting Protocol

  • Rinse the bottle twice with PBS
  • Add a dissociation solution (e.g., trypsin), ensuring full coverage of the bottle interior and pleats
  • Place the bottle in an incubator and rotate at 0.3 to 0.5 rpm for 5 to 10 minutes
  • After cell detachment, add an equal volume of cell culture medium to neutralize trypsin
  • Rotate the bottle to collect the cell suspension
  • Remove cells by pouring or pipetting
