Use these recommendations as guidelines todetermine the optimal coating conditions for your culture system. To maintain sterility, perform all operations in a laminar flow hood. Two options are provided:

Procedure A

1. Remove cap and add 5 mL of serum-free medium or PBS to the bottle.
2. Replace cap and vortex contents vigorously. Ensure that the PEPTITE-2000^®is completely solubilized. The solution will remain slightly hazy.
3. Transfer desired volume of solution from the bottle to a dilution vessel. Dilute to desired concentration using serum-free medium or PBS. A typical working concentration may range from 0.1 to 10 µg/mL.
4. Add appropriate amount of diluted material to culture surface.
5. Incubate at room temperature or 37°C, covered, for 1-2 hours.
6. After incubation, aspirate remaining material.
7. Rinse plates carefully with dH₂O– avoid scratching bottom surface of plates.
8. Plates are ready for use. They may also be stored at 2-8°C damp or air dried if sterility is maintained.
9. Store remaining solubilized PEPTITE-2000^®at 2 to 10°C.

Additional note: Include divalent cations (Calcium, Magnesium, or Manganese) in cell attachment solution to obtain optimum cell binding.

Procedure B

1. Remove cap and add 5 mL of sterile 70% Ethanol
2. Replace cap and vortex contents. Ensure that the PEPTITE-2000^®is completely solubilized.
3. Transfer desired volume of solution from the bottle to a dilution vessel. Dilute to the desired concentration using 70% Ethanol. Concentrations from 0.1 to 10 ug/mL should be tested.
4. Add appropriate amount of diluted material to culture surface.
5. Leave the coated container, uncovered, in a laminar flow hood until the wells are dry.
6. Rinse plates carefully with dH₂O– avoid scratching bottom surface of plates.
7. Plates are ready for use.
8. Store remaining solubilized PEPTITE-2000^®at 2-10°C.
