Application

Accumax has proven effective in dissociating clumped cells in suspension cultures of hybridomas, CHO, BHK, 293, COS and Sf9 cells. The solution performed extremely well in dissociating cell counting, viral transfection assays, cell sorting, flow cytometry, and bioreactor scale-up. It has also been used to create single cell suspensions from clumped cell cultures for accurate cell counting, detachment of cells from primary tissue, and the routine detachment of cells from standard tissue culture plasticware and adhesion coated plasticware.
TM=["Accumax"] solution has been used:
  • for detaching single walled carbon nanotubes from the extracellular matrix (ECM) in epithelial cells
  • for dissociation of retinal pigmented epithelial cells prior to passaging
  • for dissociation of islets from pancreas

Biochem/physiol Actions

Accumax is a cell detachment solution consisting of proteolytic and collagenolytic enzymes. Each bottle has 100 mL of 1x Accumax enzymes in Dulbecco′s PBS. There are no mammalian or bacterial-derived products found in Accumax.

  4. What is the appropriate cell dissociating product to be used for ES cells that will be injected into blastocysts?

    1 answer
    1. Accutase®, product A6964, or Accumax™ (Accutase® with DNase), product A7089, will work well for dissociation of ES cells. The Accutase® product has protease and dispase activity to dissociate the cells.  The Accumax™ product also has DNase to limit the aggregation that is caused by DNA released from ruptured cells during the dissociation/scraping.Please see the reference and link below for more information on the use of Accutase® with ES cells:Mol Reprod Dev. 2008 May;75(5):818-27
