EpiGRO^® Human Ocular Epithelia Complete Media Kit

"The successful, reliable culture of epithelial cells is critical for many areas of research, including dermatology, respiratory research, and cancer research. Because the breakdown of control mechanisms in epithelial cells is a frequent contributor to cancer progression and metastasis, epithelial cell culture is particularly important for cancer research. EpiGRO™ media formulations are optimized to provide better viability, proliferation rates, morphology and culture stability than other commercially available options. The media are provided in unique, light-blocking, temperature-monitored packaging to ensure stability and protect the media from damage by light, contamination, and excessive heat. The media do not require or contain any antimicrobials or phenol red. These components can cause cell stress and influence experimental results by masking the true performance or health of the cell culture. Phenol red acts like an estrogen and may stimulate growth independently of experimental variables. "
