°Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ
Animal Origin-Free Maintenance Medium
Prepare for a seamless transition to the clinic with °Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ, the new animal origin-free (AOF) human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) maintenance medium. Since it contains no animal-derived raw materials, °Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ helps minimize risk in your cell therapy developmentβno matter what stage your research is at. Compared to low-protein formulations, °Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ consistently supports cell growth across cell lines and allows for restricted feeding schedules, enabling you to get more of the cells you need while minimizing the time spent maintaining them.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does animal origin-free mean and why is it important?
°Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ is animal origin-free with traceability to the secondary level of manufacturing, which means that is not manufactured using any raw material ingredients derived from an animal (including human) tissue, cell, or body fluid and that the components used to manufacture the raw materials are also not derived from an animal tissue, cell, or body fluid. This is important because it means that °Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ is viral safe by design, easing the path to clinical applications with straightforward traceability documentation that can be provided to regulators.
Can I use a restricted feeding schedule with °Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ?
Yes! °Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ contains stabilized components, including FGF2. This means that hPSCs maintained with °Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ restricted-feed schedules exhibit comparable colony morphology to those fed daily.
What advantages does °Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ have over a low-protein medium such as TeSRβ’ E8?
In addition to the ability to enjoy a weekend-free schedule as described above, hPSCs maintained in °Υ±π³§Έιβ’-΄‘°ΏΉσ have improved attachment and higher overall expansion compared to low-protein media.
