Product Name Methyl Cellulose Solution, 2×, 1.8%
Catalog No. RERE-0384
Description Methyl cellulose, sometimes transliterated as methocel, is a semisynthetic viscoelastic polymer that turns liquid culture into a gentle semisolid matrix, anchoring colonies of suspension cells in place so they grow as discrete, countable and pickable clones. This autoclaved 2× stock sits at 1.8 percent with a viscosity of 450 cps or higher, and is diluted to produce the working gel for cloning of cells grown in suspension, colony formation assays and colony isolation.
Intended Use Clonogenic culture of suspension cells, colony enumeration and physical retrieval of individual colonies.
Principle / Technology The viscous polymer network immobilises single cells so each founds a spatially separated colony.
Specificity 2× concentrate; 1.8% methyl cellulose; viscosity 450 cps or above; aqueous, autoclaved.
Reaction Conditions / Protocol Dilute with the appropriate complete medium to the working concentration before seeding cells for colony culture.
Storage Conditions 2-8°C; 12 months.
Package Specifications 50 mL, 250 mL
Key Features High-viscosity 2× stock; autoclaved; classic matrix for colony assays and clonal selection.
