We have a cell line that a lot of work went into producing a stabile
clone expressing a specific gene. Now, after a freezer blowout, the
only cells left appear to be contaminated with some bacteria or small
yeast. I know this is asking the impossible but has anyone got
suggestions on how to clear this? The media has pen and step already.
I am trying washing the cells repeatedly and bringing up in new
media. Any other bright ideas? Please let me know ASAP- I'm on my
last vial.
