Description

General description

FibroGRO^® Media formulations provide an optimal cell culture environment for many types of human fibroblasts and mouse embryonic fibroblasts These low-serum/serum-free formulations have been shown to grow these cells at rates that meet or exceed commercially available serum containing media, while maintaining excellent cell morphology. The media are packaged in a specially designed UV protective shrinkwrap for added stability, which includes a temperature gauge for added convenience. FibroGRO^® Media contain no antimicrobials and no phenol red, components that can cause cell stress and masking effects that may influence experimental results.

Application

FibroGRO Complete Medium is a defined medium optimized for serum-free culture of human fibroblasts, and supports the growth of these cells in a serum-free environment at rates equal to or greater than comparable media supplemented with much higher concent

FibroGRO Complete Medium is a defined medium optimized for serum-free culture of human fibroblasts, and supports the growth of these cells in a serum-free environment at rates equal to or greater than comparable media supplemented with much higher concentrations of FBS. FibroGRO Medium contains no antimicrobials and no phenol red; components that can cause cell stress and “masking effects” that may influence experimental results (these are not needed, or recommended, to achieve optimal cell performance). FibroGRO medium provides a perfect cell system to establish serum-free human feeder layers for stem cell culture, or as a model to study wound healing, toxicology or basic cell biology

The FibroGRO Media provide an optimal cell culture environment for many types of human fibroblasts & mouse embryonic fibroblasts.
