STEMium® - Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Culture
Pluripotent stem cells are often termed ‘true’ stem cells because they have the potential to differentiate into almost any cell in the body. This means that under the right circumstances, a stem cell that is isolated from an embryo can produce almost all of the cells in the body. Yet after this embryonic development stage is over, the stem cells no longer have this unlimited potential to develop into all cell types. Their pluripotency is thus lost and they can only become certain types of cells.
Pluripotent Stem Cells Culture Media
STEMium® - Defined, xeno-free (XF), serum-free media (SFM) specially formulated for optimal growth and expansion of human pluripotent stem cells.
 |
Advantages of using STEMium® • Consistent formulation No batch to batch variability due to our unique serum-free, xeno-free formulation • Convenient Does not requirefeeder cells, conditioned media or additional growth factors. No gradual medium adaptation is required. • Easy Subculturing Convenient method using our StemDS® cell dissociation solution. No additional scraping tools are required. • Feeder-free Human embryonic stem cells cultured in STEMium® do not requirefeeder cells and should be used in conjunction with BD Matrigel™. |
Human Embryonic Stem Cell Dissociation Solution
 |
StemDS® cell dissociation solution is a sterile, phosphate and HEPES-buffered saline solution designed for the optimal dissociation of adherent human embryonic stem cells. StemDS® solution contains 1 mM sodium, pyruvate and 10 mM HEPES. This product has a pH of 7.4 at room temperature. |
Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Cryopreservation Medium
StemCryo® (Cat. No. 0153-SC and 0163-SC)
 |
StemCryo® is a sterile, uniquely formulated medium designed for the cryopreservation of human pluripotent stem cells (e.g. human embryonic stem cells and human induced pluripotent stem cells). This fully defined, animal-component free, serum-free medium provides optimal cell recovery efficiency while maintaining cell pluripotency. This product has a pH of 7.2 at room temperature. |
