1. Thaw a 145 ul aliquot of Matrigel at 4°C for 1-2 h before use.

2. Add 12.5 ml of cold DMEM/F12 (4°C) to the Matrigel solution tubes. Pipet gently to avoid bubbles formation.

3. Add 1 ml of the Matrigel working solution to a 35 mm culture dish and rock gently to distribute the solution evenly.

4. Leave the plate at RT for 1-2 h or put it at 4°C overnight.


  • Matrigel plates are good for 1 weeks at 4°C, although fresh plates are preferable.
