Can I expand and refreeze ScienCells normal human cells?
It depends on which cell type. Some cell types such as neurons, microglia and some slow growing epithelial cells are not recommended for expansion and refreezing. Other cell types such as fibroblasts, stellate cells, mesangial cells, astrocytes and so on are can be expanded and refrozen. However, one should note that the refreezing process may result in altered growth performance in the cells. If you want to refreeze the cells, please consult our tech support personal and use ScienCell SF-CFM, a defined serum-free freezing medium, for the best result.
