We are been having trouble lately when using dispase for more than three minutes. Our feeder cells are coming out with our colonies in the wash step as a one layered mess. When we re-plate our cells to expand, there are this ugly strings of MEF cells all over the plate. We thought it was mycoplasm but our culture is negative for it. We also tried to dilute our dispase (StemCell @ 5U/ml) and change the incubation time from 5 minutes to 3 minutes but with no luck. Could it be the gelatin we use when plating the MEFs? We have looked at the MEF plates before using to plate our iPSCs and it look fine. Any thoughts?
