Tissue Culture 101 * How should the serum be thawed?

1. Remove the serum bottles from the freezer and allow them to acclimate to room temperature for approximately 10 minutes
2. Place each container in a 30 to 37°C water bath or incubator. Excessive temperatures will degrade heat-labile nutrients. Prevent the bottle from tilting over.
3. Gently swirl or shake the bottles every 10 to 15 minutes until is completely thawed.
4. After thawing, use serum promptly. Liquid serum may be stored refrigerated (2 to 8°C) for up to 4 weeks. Ultimately, this length of time where cell culture can be successful will vary with different cell lines. Repeated freeze and thaw series may cause a decrease in serum performance. To avoid thaw/freeze cycles or long periods of refrigeration it is recommended that any unused serum be immediately dispensed into small aliquots and refrozen.
5. Periodic agitation is crucial to its optimum performance. If a bottle of serum is not periodically shaken or swirled as it thaws, gradients containing high concentrations of salts, proteins and lipids will form throughout the liquid portion and lead to the formation of crystalline or flocculent precipitates. These cryoprecipitates are not toxic to cell cultures, but they affect the appearance and consistency or each bottle of serum. Small amounts of cryoprecipitates are not uncommon, and will not affect product performance. Gently warming and mixing the serum will generally allow the material to go back into solution.
