Gibco™ 293-H cells were cloned from the original 293 cell line and adapted to Gibco™ CD 293 Medium. The 293 cell line is a permanent line established from primary embryonic human kidney and transformed with sheared human adenovirus type 5 DNA. The E1A adenovirus gene is expressed in these cells and participates in transactivation of some viral promoters, allowing these cells to produce very high levels of protein. Gibco™ 293-H cells in Gibco™ CD 293 Medium feature:
• Quick thaw into suspension culture directly in Gibco™ CD 293 Medium or Gibco™ 293 SFM II
• Faster growth, good adherence, superior transfection efficiencies and high protein expression levels
• Documented lineage from a low passage Master Cell Bank
• Quality and performance testing

Quick thaw into suspension culture directly in Gibco™ CD 293 Medium or Gibco™ 293 SFM II
Each vial containing 7.5 × 106 cells can be thawed directly into suspension culture in either Gibco™ CD 293 Medium or Gibco™ 293 SFM II supplemented with 4 mM L-glutamine or GlutaMAX™ reagent. Protocols are provided in the product manual.

Faster growth, good adherence, superior transfection efficiencies and high protein expression levels
Gibco™ 293-H cells were prepared from a clone selected for fast growth in serum-free medium, good adherence during plaque assays, superior transfection efficiencies and a high level of protein expression. Optimal transfection efficiencies are obtained with Lipofectamine™ 2000 or 293fectin™ transfection reagents.

Documented lineage from a low passage Master Cell Bank
The parental 293 cells were cloned by limiting dilution; the clone selected exhibited fast growth and high transfection efficiency. This clone was then re-cloned by limiting dilution; of these clones, the 293-H clone was then selected for its good adherence during plaque assays. The serum-free Master Cell Banks were prepared at approximately passage 25.

Quality and performance testing
Each lot of Gibco™ 293 H cells is tested for cell growth and viability post-recovery from cryopreservation. In addition, the Master Seed Bank has been tested for contamination of bacteria, yeast, mycoplasma and virus and has been characterized by isozyme and karyotype analysis.
