Applications
The antibody reacts with colon and small intestine as well as a variety normal and neoplastic tissues.
The antibody reacts with 16 of 17 colon cell lines tested.
This is one of a panel of hybridomas (ATCC HB-8232 and ATCC HB-8240 through ATCC HB-8252) that can be used to diagnose and classify human gastrointestinal tract cancers.

Comments
Animals were immunized with a human colon cancer cell line (HT-29, see ATCC HTB-38).
The antibody reacts with colon and small intestine as well as a variety normal and neoplastic tissues.
The antibody reacts with 16 of 17 colon cell lines tested.

Complete Growth Medium
The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated RPMI-1640 Medium, ATCC 30-2001. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum (ATCC 30-2020) to a final concentration of 10%.
Subculturing
Medium Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days
Cultures can be maintained by addition or replacement of fresh medium. Start cultures at 2 X 10 exp5 cells/ml and maintain between 1 X 10 exp5 and 1 X 10 exp6 cells/ml.
