NeuroCult™ Proliferation Kit (Mouse & Rat) is a standardized, serum-free medium and supplement kit for the culture of mouse and rat neural stem and progenitor cells from normal tissues or tumor samples. When supplemented with appropriate cytokines, NeuroCult™ Proliferation Kit (Mouse & Rat) is optimized to maintain mouse and rat neural stem cells in culture for extended periods of time without the loss of their self-renewal, proliferation, or differentiation potential.NOTE: When preparing Complete NeuroCult™ Proliferation Medium, addition of Human Recombinant EGF (Catalog #78006.1) is required. When culturing cells obtained from adult mouse or rat, Human Recombinant bFGF (Catalog #78003.1) and Heparin Solution (Catalog #07980) are also required.
