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-LS Medium is optimized for low-serum (2%) culture of human fibroblasts, and supports the growth of these cells in a 2% serum environment at rates equal to or greater than comparable media supplemented with much higher concentrations of FBS. May also be used for the culture of stromal cells, mesenchymal cells and mouse embryonic fibroblasts. FibroGRO-LS 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 provides a perfect cell system to establish low serum human feeder layers for stem cell culture, or as a model to study wound healing, toxicology or basic cell biology
