Vitronectin - Animal Free Cell Culture Matrix Kit Now is the time to shift from Matrigel™ to Animal Free Vitronectin cell culture surface-coating reagent
Qualified for hESC/iPSC
The extra cellular matrix (ECM) plays and important role in the stem cell niche. In-vitro stem cell cultures have utilized feeder cells and an undefined, animal derived ECM. Current stem cell research needs calls for defined culture conditions, including the use of defined recombinant ECM. Kit Components (Cat# AF-VMB-220): 1. Animal-Free Human Vitronectin Matrix 2. Animal-Free Vitronectin Matrix Buffer (PBS + Kolliphor P 188) for Vitronectin Matrix reconstitution and cell plate/dish dilutions. Kolliphor P 188 is a solubilizer that acts as a dispersing and wetting agent for optimal coating of cell culture vessels with vitronectin. The kit allows the coating of 100 wells of 6-wells plates with vitronectin.

Reference Medium on Matrigel™ 200x magnification
PeproGrow-hESC Medium on Matrigel™ 200x magnification
Reference Medium on Vitronectin 200x magnification
PeproGrow-hESC Medium on Vitronectin 200x magnification
The reference medium produces well-formed tightly packed colonies, on both Matrigel and Vitronectin. Cells grown in the PeproGrow-hESC medium on both matrices retain the same morphological characteristics of the cells grown in the reference medium.
