Stemline^® Mesenchymal Stem Cell Expansion Medium

Developed to promote the optimal expansion of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) from bone marrow, Stemline Mesenchymal Stem Cell Expansion Medium demonstrates greater total nucleated cell (TNC) fold increases than other commercially available formulations. Additionally, functional trials clearly demonstrated Stemline′s capacity to promote differentiation into adipocytes, chondrocytes, and osteocytes.

Stemline Mesenchymal Stem Cell Expansion Medium requires supplementation with antibiotics, cytokines, L-glutamine and fetal bovine serum, as appropriate to individual research protocols. Known to be extremely sensitive during initial isolation and growth ex vivo, MSC proliferation depends highly on the composition of fetal bovine serum (FBS) used to supplement their medium. Pre-screening with FBS is recommended, as the specific FBS components that effect MSC growth have not been fully identified.

Produced in a GMP state-of-the-art facility, Stemline Mesenchymal Stem Cell Expansion Medium is clearly an excellent choice for your MSC applications.

Medium must be supplemented with antibiotics, cytokines, 4 mM L-glutamine, and fetal bovine serum according to individual user protocols.
