Gibco™ Sf-900™ III SFM

Description

A low-hydrolysate, serum-free, protein-free, animal origin–free insect cell culture medium

Sf-900 III SFM is a low-hydrolysate, serum-free, protein-free, animal origin–free insect cell culture medium optimized for the growth and maintenance of Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9 and Sf21) cells.

• Optimized for recombinant gene expression using the baculovirus and stable insect expression systems
• Suitable for suspension and monolayer culture methods and supports growth of other lepidopteran cell lines
• Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) cells grown in Sf-900 III SFM achieve maximum cell densities of 10–14 x 10⁶ cells/mL
• An improved serum-free, protein-free, animal origin–free medium designed for growth of Sf9 and other lepidopteran cell lines and production of insect viruses and recombinant proteins
• Ready to use format does not require addition of serum, glutamine, or surfactants
• Cells adapted to other commercially available serum-free media should be sequentially adapted into Sf-900 III SFM
• Reduced hydrolysate concentrations improve lot-to-lot consistency
