十大网投彩票官网注册’s EpiOral and EpiGingival tissues consist of normal, human-derived oral epithelial cells. 细胞已培养成多层, highly differentiated models of the human buccal (EpiOral) and gingival (EpiGingival) phenotypes. The tissues are cultured on specially prepared cell culture inserts using serum free medium and attain levels of differentiation on the cutting edge of in vitro cell culture technology. The EpiOral and EpiGingival tissue models exhibit in vivo-like morphological and growth characteristics which are uniform and highly reproducible.
Both EpiOral and EpiGingival express cytokeratin K13 in all layers except the most apical ones and weakly express cytokeratin K14 in the upper layers of the tissue (Figure 1). The tissues also produce the naturally occurring antimicrobial peptides called human beta defensins (HBDs). EpiOral组成性表达HBD-1和HBD-3，但不表达HBD-2(图2)。. EpiGingival weakly expresses HBD-3 in all layers except the uppermost ones and HBD-1 in the apical layers but does not express HBD-2 (Figure 3).
Lipid analysis of the explant tissues along with EpiGingival (GIN-100) and EpiOral (ORL-200) is shown below in Table 1. 口腔和口腔外植体只含有神经酰胺2(神经酰胺NS)。. 表面牙龈和牙龈组织含有神经酰胺1, 2, 和3(也称为神经酰胺EOS), NS, and EOHP/NP, respectively).
A growing body of data indicates that EpiOral and EpiGingival effectively provide an inexpensive, 非动物方法评估口腔刺激, toxicology, 以及病理相关的问题. 十二烷基硫酸钠(SDS)作用的代表性剂量-反应曲线, 牙膏中常用的表面活性剂, is shown in Figure 4.

Histology: ORL-200: 8-11个非角膜组织细胞层. GIN-100: 8-11层角膜组织.
Lot Numbers: 每周生产的纸巾批次被分配一个特定的批号. 所有组织试剂盒在细胞方面都是相同的, medium, handling, culture conditions, etc.
Shipment: 在4°C培养基中添加琼脂糖凝胶.
Shipment day: Monday.
Delivery: 周二上午通过联邦快递优先服务(美国). 美国以外:周二至周四视地点而定.
Shelf life: Including time in transit, tissues may be stored at 4°C for up to 2 days prior to use. 但是，除非绝对必要，否则不建议延长储存期. In addition, the best reproducibility will be obtained if tissues are used consistently on the same day, e.g. 周三早上，在4°C的温度下过夜.
Length of experiments: Cultures can be continued for at least 1 week with good retention of normal morphology. 培养物必须每隔一天用5.0毫升维持培养基(ORL-200-MM或GIN-100-MM). Cell culture inserts are placed atop culture stands (MEL-STND) or washers (EPI-WSHR) in 6-well plates to allow the use of 5.0 ml.

质量控制和无菌:
Visual inspection: 所有组织都经过目视检查，如果发现物理缺陷, 纸巾被拒绝装运.
End-use testing:. 组织也暴露于1.0% Triton X-100 for various times and the exposure time required to reduce the tissue viability to 50% (ET-50) is determined using the MTT assay. QC规格:ORL-200: 34.85 < ET-50 < 105.78 min GIN-100: 5.47 hr < ET-50 < 10.42 hr.
Sterility: 在整个生产过程中使用的所有介质都要进行无菌检查. Maintenance medium is incubated with and without antibiotics for 1 week and checked for sterility. The agarose gel from the 24-well plate used for shipping is also incubated for 1 week and checked for any sign of contamination.
Screening for pathogens: All cells are screened and are negative for HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C using PCR. However, no known test method can offer complete assurance that the cells are pathogen free. Thus, these products and all human derived products should be handled at BSL-2 levels (biosafety level 2) or higher as recommended in the CDC-NIH manual, 微生物和生物医学实验室的生物安全,” 1998. For further assistance, please contact your site Safety Officer or 十大网投彩票官网注册 technical service.
不合格批件通知: 如果纸巾没有通过我们的质量检验或无菌检验, the customer will be notified and the tissues will be replaced without charge when appropriate. 因为我们的一些QC和无菌检测是在出货后完成的, 我们会尽快发出通知. 在正常情况下，ET-50故障将在周四下午5点前通知.m.; sterility failures will be notified within 8 days of shipment.
