Description

Serum-free cell culture media allow users to standardize their cell culture conditions by avoiding the use of undefined and highly variable serum products derived from humans or animals, e.g. human AB serum or Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS).

The high variability in the biological properties of different serum batches makes it necessary to pre-screen various batches in order to obtain a single one which is well suited for a given application. For this reason, it has been challenging to develop a serum substitute for several cell line. Most serum-free media is "rich enough"to permit the growth of robust tumor cells (e.g. hybridomas), but Most serum free media are spe-cific to one cell type. Therefore, different media may be required for different cell lines.

Several serum free media have been evolved , but most of the media formulations are not available commercially.

Ceraplex Sreum-Free Media Optimization Kit is designed for formulating cell-to-cell specific serum free me-dia condition at your bench top. These kit contains Ceraplex Serum replacement and other additional growth factors. Ceraplex Serum-Free Media Optimization kit enable researchers to make cell-to-cell specific serum free media for researcher to make experimental requirements. Kit contains individual components for making 500ml serum free media.
