CAF Growth media is designed for the culture of cancer associated fibroblast (CAF) cells. It was tested and optimized with cell growth and proliferation in vitro.
Each lot of media is subjected to comprehensive quality control tests using primary human cells. A panel of different bioassays affirms the media sustain a proper environment for expected cell-type-specific culture, growth, plating, karyotype, physiology, morphology, viability, population doublings, surface markers, cryopreservation, differentiation, and/or induction.
In addition, every lot of media is tested for the absence of microbial contaminants (fungi, bacteria, mycoplasma). The products undergo further quality control for correct pH, osmolality, and lack of endotoxins.
