Ba/F3 Cell Line

General Information
OrganismMus musculus (B cell)
Cell Line DescriptionBa/F3 cell line was originally deposited to our cell bank in 1992 as an IL-3-dependent mouse cell line derived from BALB/c mouse strain and has been distributed since then. Ba/F3, a murine interleukin-3 dependent pro-B cell line, is a popular system for exploring both kinases and their kinase inhibitors, because some protein kinases can render Ba/F3 cells to be independent of IL-3, while their inhibitors antagonize this effect.
StrainBALB/c (B cell); BALB/c (myeloma)
TissueLymphocyte
Cell TypePro B cells
MorphologyMostly single, round (some polymorph) cells in suspension
Product FormatFrozen
Growth ModeSuspension
ApplicationsProtein expression, drug screening and biological assays
Shipped inDry ice

Culture Conditions and Handling
Resuscitation

Thaw the vial as soon as possible upon receipt to insure its viability.

  1. Thaw the frozen vial in a 37°C water bath for 1-2 minutes.
  2. Transfer the vial into biosafety cabinet. Wipe the surface with 70% ethanol and drop the cell suspension gently into a centrifuge tube containing 9.0 mL complete culture medium.
  3. Spin at 125 x g, for 5- 7 minutes at room temperature.
  4. Resuspend cell pellet with the appropriate volume of complete medium, then transfer the cell suspension into a T25 culture flask.
  5. Incubate the culture at 37°, 5% CO2 incubator or refer to the specific culture condition, if possible.
SubculturingCultures can be maintained by the addition of fresh medium or replacement of medium. Alternatively, cultures can be established by centrifugation with subsequent resuspension at 5 X 104 viable cells/ml.
Keep cell density between 5 X 104 and 5 X 105 viable cells/ml.
Split Ratio1:10 split
Medium RenewalAdd fresh medium every 2 to 3 days
Culture Temperature37℃
Incubation Condition5% CO2
HarvestMaximal density of about 2.5 x 106 cells/ml
StorageFrozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO
