Pelle Punch Biopsia Espianto Cultura per la derivazione di fibroblasti umani primari

Hello.Welcome to the skin Biopsy Processing video tutorial. Start by placing the required Materials in the tissue culture hood. All objects entering the hood must be sprayed with 70%ethanol and wiped down, labeled a plate with the PI number, the date, initials, and the type of media at one milliliter of 0.1%gelatin to each wall, swirl the plate around to ensure that the bottom is coated with gelatin.

Let the Plate sit for an hour before use. The first step is to transfer the biopsy from the tube to the cutting dish. A cutting dish is a lid of a 10 centimeter Petri plate on which the biopsy will be dissected.

Add 1.5 milliliter of DMEM 20%FBS to the center of The cutting dish. Spread the media out from the center. Here you can see the skin biopsy.

The next step is to Transfer the biopsy from the tube into the center of the cutting dish. Using sterile forceps, place the skin biopsy piece at the center. Be careful while doing this, it is essential to maintain sterility.

Cover the cutting dish and transfer it to the dissecting microscope in the laminar flow hood. The next step is to dissect the biopsy into 12 to 18 evenly sized Pieces. Handle the scalpels with care.

When you're ready, uncover the biopsy. Use one scalpel to pin down the biopsy. Move the second scalpel up and down in a one direction slicing motion.

Cut the biopsy in half. Continue cutting each piece in half until you have 12 to 18 pieces. The ideal Size of each biopsy piece takes up approximately 70 to 80%of the micrometer in the left ocular objective of the inverted microscope.

Avoid pieces smaller than 50%of the micrometer Count. To Ensure there are 12 to 18 pieces. The next step will be done inside the tissue culture hood.

Cover the cutting dish and transfer it back into the tissue. Culture hood aspirate gelatin from the six well plate add 700 microliters of DMEM 20%FBS to each. Well, it is a good Practice to add Media against the sidewall of the container.

Make sure the well is covered with a thin film of media. Using forceps plays two to three biopsy pieces into each wall of the six. Well plate.

Use a tapping or sliding motion to get the pieces to attach to the bottom of the wall. A scalpel can be used to remove any stuck biopsy pieces from the forceps. The cells that will grow on this plate will be at passage zero.

This is how the plate should look at the end. Here's one of the pieces under an inverted microscope. This is the skin biopsy on day one.

Usually you see attachment within one to three days. Keratinocytes start appearing within a week's time. Fibroblasts can be seen within two weeks.

Sometimes the keratinocytes are not observed. Usually it takes three weeks for the fibroblasts to become compliment and ready for packaging.
