Storage & Handling

Product Characteristics This product is liquid at 4°C but forms a gel when heated to 37°C. Once solidified, the Matrigel can liquefy again if returned to 4°C overnight.
Storage It is recommended that the product be aliquoted into single-use portions immediately after the first thaw and stored at -80°C for up to 2 years.
Shipping Information Shipping with dry ice.
Notes As this matrix gel solidifies when the temperature exceeds 10°C, it is essential to keep it on ice at all times during handling. To release organoids during passaging without exposing them to enzymes, gently pipette the gel using a pre-chilled basal culture medium (4°C).

For preclinical research and development use only; not intended for therapeutic or other applications.
