1. Prepare Matrigel plate 1-2 h before thawing hESCs. If cooled Matrigel plates are used, place the plates at room temperature for at least an hour prior to plating cells.

2. Thaw hES vial at 37°C water bath (with small frozen portion left).

3. Add 5 mL pre-warmed DMEM/F-12 media (37°C) to a conical tube. Transfer cells to the conical tube and wash the vial with another 5 mL of DMEM/F-12 media.

4. Centrifuge at 300g for 5 minutes.

5. Aspirate excess Matrigel working solution in the 35 mm Matrigel plate and add 1 ml of pre-warmed mTeSR1 media to the plate.

6. After centrifuge is completed, discard the media without disturbing the pellet. Resuspend pellet in 1 ml of mTeSR1 media.

7. Add cell suspension to the Matrigel plate in a drop wise manner.

8. Incubate the plate at 37°C incubator. Medium should be changed daily.
