Optimized conditions for primary culture of pituitary cells from the Atlantic cod ( Gadus morhua ). The importance of osmolality, pCO2 , and pH

Highlights ► Adapting mammalian primary cell culture protocols to teleosts (Atlantic cod). ► Adjusting medium osmolality, pCO2 and pH increase viability and functionality. ► Physiological osmolality in all solutions increases V m and survival time. ► Physiological pCO2 and pH stabilize V m and furth...

Description
Summary:Highlights ► Adapting mammalian primary cell culture protocols to teleosts (Atlantic cod). ► Adjusting medium osmolality, pCO2 and pH increase viability and functionality. ► Physiological osmolality in all solutions increases V m and survival time. ► Physiological pCO2 and pH stabilize V m and further prolong survival time. ► Serum supplement is not crucial, but increase viability and affect gene expression.
