PAN-Biotech Neuropan-27 Supplement (50x): Defined Serum Substitute for Serum-Free Culture of CNS Neuronal Cells (10 ml). DESCRIPTION: Neuropan-27 is provided as a 50x concentrated serum substitute designed for the long-term growth and survival of hippocampal and other neuronal cells of the Central Nervous System (CNS). By supplementing Neuropan Basal Medium with Neuropan-27 and 0.5 mM L-Glutamine, excellent long-term viability of rat embryonic hippocampal neurons has been achieved after several weeks in culture. Glial cell growth is reduced to less than 0.1% for a largely pure neuronal cell culture. COMPOSTION: Neuropan-27 Supplement is a serum substitute of defined composition containing albumin, insulin, transferrin, lipids, and hormones. It is used as a supplement to Neuropan Basal Medium to support growth and survival of neuronal cells from the CNS. LIQUID/POWDER: Liquid. STERILE: Yes. STORAGE TEMP: -20°C. MANUFACTURER: PAN-Biotech GmbH (Germany).
