  • Q & A
  • Customer Review
Q:
Where are Human Osteoblasts (HOB) isolated from?
A:

Creative Bioarray’s Human Osteoblasts are isolated by explant, and the tissue is from the spongy section of the bone head of the ribs, femur, or tibia.

Q:
Are the osteoblast cells contact inhibited?
A:

No, our osteoblast cells are not contact inhibited and tend to grow on top of each other after becoming confluent.

Q:
What is the approximate doubling time of osteoblasts?
A:

The average doubling time of our osteoblasts is 35-40 hours in earlier passages. If in older (later passage) cultures, it can be much longer, and there might be donor-to-donor variations as well.

Q:
Why does Creative Bioarray recommend two different concentrations of the β-Glycerophosphate in the differentiation protocol?
A:

We have found some osteoblast cell strains to be more sensitive to β-Glycerophosphate than others. Therefore, we recommend trying two cited concentration to determine the optimal concentration for each specific lot.
