StemPro hESC SFM - Human Embryonic Stem Cell Culture Medium
StemPro hESC SFM – a fully-defined, serum- and feeder-free medium (SFM) specially formulated for the growth and expansion of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs)
Tips for hESC Adaptation to StemPro hESC SFM
- From MEF conditioned media
- From other serum and feeder-free media
Serum- and Feeder-Free Medium
- Enables superior expansion of hESCs
- Maintains pluripotency and normal morphology / karyotype of hESCs
- Maintains differentiation capability of hESCs
- Provides gene expression profiles comparable to classical media
- Each lot is performance qualified using PCR
- No or little adaptation required from feeder cultures
- Eliminates variability associated with feeder-dependent cultures.
