Essential 8 Medium—Superior Recovery During Adaptation

The Gibco Essential 8 Adaptation Kit includes Gibco Essential 8 Medium and recombinant human rhLaminin-521 (rhLaminin-521) for optimal survival during transition from a feeder-dependent to feeder-free culture system.

View protocol

Gibco PSC Media are manufactured according to cGMP for medical devices, 21 CFR Part 820

Confidently support cells during transition from feeder-based to feeder-free culture conditions

> When used in conjunction with Essential 8 Medium, rhLaminin-521 enables a trouble-free transition from feeder-based media to a xeno-free, feeder-free media system.

Optimum recovery of PSCs during transition to Gibco Essential 8 Medium in the absence of small molecule inhibitors

图1. Optimum recovery of PSCs during transition to Gibco Essential 8 Medium in the absence of small molecule inhibitors. An episomal CD34+-derived iPSC line was cultured on mouse irradiated feeders in KSR-based medium prior to transition to Essential 8 Medium.   Confluency of cultures was monitored using the IncuCyte ZOOM™ system post-passage (n=3 per condition).
