Dissection and dissociation of muscle
- Euthanize mouse and peal skin.
- Dissect pectoral, brachial, leg, and abdominal muscle.
- Wash muscle by PBS on 10 cm petri dish.
- Eliminate fat, tendon, and vessel.
- Mince muscle in 5 ml collagenase II sol on 6 cm petri dish.
- Incubate at 37C for 1 h.
- Suspend by 12 ml syringe with 18G needle.
- Incubate at 37C for 15 min.
- Put into 25 ml DMEM in 50 ml tube.
- Filtrate by 70 um Cell Strainer into four 50 ml tube with diluting by PBS.
- Keep tube on ice in following procedure.
