Proven, Potent and Cost Effective Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGF).
Neuromics have a wealth of expertise in
Stem Cells, Media and Growth Factors.
FGF is an important component of
Stem Cell Based Assays. Our goal is to provide an FGF that fits your requirements like "hand in glove".
Here's a small sampling:
ISO-kine bFGF-100% animal free and serum free-is produced in the endosperm tissue of barley grain (Hordeum vulgare), that
exhibits up to 50 times less protease activity than E.coli or mammalian cells.
Barley seed is void of any human or animal viral contaminants that could
jeopardize your cell culture.
Images A: Expression of OCT4 (green) in the ORF group. B: Expression of TRA-1-60 (green) in the ORF group.
...15 million MNCs were seeded per 150 cm2 tissue culture flask. Culture media was alpha MEM supplemented with 10% heat inactivated fetal bovine serum, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 100 mM HEPES buffer, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin, 0.29 mg/ml L-glutamine (all from Invitrogen, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada) and 5 ng/ml of basic FGF or FGF-2 (Neuromics, Edina, MN, USA). Plastic adherent MNCs were allowed to attach and proliferate for 7 days before the first media change under normal oxygen tension (21% O2; 95% air) at 37°C in a humidified incubator with 5% CO2...
Images: Histological characteristics of pellets formulated from mono-cultured MCs, mono-cultured BMSCs and co-cultures of MC and BMSCs after a total of 17 days culture in defined serum-free chondrogenic media. (A-B) Safranin O and collagen II immuno-histochemical staining of representative pellets from cells derived from the same donor. Magnification lens × 20; scale bar is 100 μm.
