VitroGel Cell Recovery Solution – Cell Harvesting
VitroGel® Cell Recovery Solution is an non-enzymatic cell harvesting solution to recover cells/organoids cultured in 2D, 3D efficiently and safely in 20 minutes.
VitroGel Cell Recovery Solution is room temperature stable, has a neutral pH, and works at 37°C operating temperature. The solution can maintain high cell viability during the recovery process. Harvested cells can be sub-culture in both 2D and 3D cultures.
The VitroGel Cell Recovery Solution can be used before or after the fixation and stained preparation of hydrogel specimens to ensure high-quality downstream data analysis.
Easy cell recovery from hydrogel in 20 minutes.

TECHNICAL TIPS
Technical Tips
- KEEP SOLUTION WARM: It is important to keep the cell recovery solution and the mixture warm at 37°C during the whole process. The warm temperature is essential to accelerate molecular exchanges to release the ionic molecules from the solid hydrogel, which can transform into a soft hydrogel.
- APPLY MECHANICAL FORCE: The mechanical force, such as rocking or shaking the centrifuge tube or using a serological pipette to mix the hydrogel with the cell recovery solution helps to transform the hydrogel into the liquid state.
- DILUTION: Adding the cell recovery solution at a volume of 10X or higher than the hydrogel maintains the dissolved hydrogel in a liquid state.
- CENTRIFUGE AT ROOM TEMPERATURE

A. Cell viability of OP9, U87-MG and PANC-1 cells after adding to recovery solution at time 0, 15, 30, 60 and 120 min. Cells maintain over 95% cell viability after suspending in VitroGel cell recovery solution for 2 hr.; B. PANC-1 cells growth on 2D well plate before transfer to cell recovery solution; C. PANC-1 cells suspended in cell recovery solution for 24 hours then re-culture on 2D well plate for 5 days. Cells has been successful re-culture after suspend in cell recovery solution for 24 hours.
