Human Anterior or Posterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL or PCL) Cells, Cryopreserved, Healthy Donor

Tissue Procurement: Human ACL/PCL is collected from cadaveric donors with no history of joint disease or arthritis within 48 hours of death. Proper consent and serological information is obtained on all specimens.

Cryopreservation: ACL and PCL is digested separately with an enzymatic treatment. The isolated cells are seeded onto a flask and cultured to remove non-adherent cells. ACL and PCL cells are processed for cryopreservation and combined with FBS containing 10% DMSO. Cryopreserved cells are shipped with dry ice for overnight delivery. Expect recovery ~1.0E06 cells, with a guaranteed minimum recovery of 0.5E6 cells after 1 week in culture.

Quality Control: Tested negative for fungal and bacterial contamination.
