Procedure:
- heat the HS up to 37ºC
- pipette 14 ml C2C12 HS media in a 75 cm2 cell culture flask
- pipette carefully 1 ml from the warm media in the cryo tube to the frozen cells
- pipette carefully up and down till the cells are thaw
- pipette all in the FALCON tube
- centrifuge at 1000 xg, 3 min at 4ºC
