Proserin 401

Proserin 401 is a chemically defined complete ready to use medium for the serum-free cultivation of a multitude of adherent and non adherent cells.

Suitability
Proserin 401 is a multi-purpose medium suitable for a variety of cells. As the medium contains no growth factors there is a possibility to investigate the effects of specific growth factors added to the cell culture. Proserin 401 does not contain any attachment factors. With some cell types a pre-treatment of the cell culture vessels with gelatine, collagen, poly-D-lysine or fibronectin may support or enable a culture under serum-free conditions. Please not that a coating may be especially important with low seeding densities. With every adaption to serum-free media, changes of the cells should be taken into consideration. These changes may concern morphology, karyotype, surface markers and so on. Thus cells in serum-free medium may not be identical with those from cultures containing serum in which they originated (selection).
