The PromoCell Cancer Cell Line Medium XF is a cell culture medium developed for the standardized in vitro cultivation of established human cancer cell lines. Its serum-free and xeno-free formulation provides a culture environment devoid of all stimuli originating from non-defined materials. Thus, it has no ill-defined components such as fetal calf serum, extracts or hydrolysates and exhibits very low lot-to-lot variability.
Components:The PromoCell Cancer Cell Line Medium XF consists of a bottle of Basal Medium and one vial of SupplementMix. Adding the SupplementMix to the Basal Medium results in the complete medium
Note: Culture vessels need to be coated. For coating we recommend using Human Fibronectin Solution (C-43060) or Vitronectin (C-69201).
Key features:
- Suitable for long-term routine culture of adherently growing established human cancer cell lines
- Compatible with most commonly used human cancer cell lines
- Xeno-free and serum-free formulation
