Description
B27 Supplement (50X, Minus Insulin), also known as B27 Serum-Free Supplement (Minus Insulin), B-27 Supplement (Minus Insulin), B-27 Minus Insulin, B27 Additive (Minus Insulin), or B27 Serum-Free Additive (without Insulin), is an optimized neuronal cell culture supplement derived from the complete B27 Supplement but without insulin. It is widely used to support the growth and differentiation of hippocampal neurons and other central nervous system (CNS) neurons, maintaining their short-term or long-term viability. B27 Supplement (50X, Minus Insulin) is particularly useful in studies examining the effects of insulin on neuronal cell growth.
B27 Supplement (50X, Minus Insulin) is provided in a 50X liquid form and is compatible with Neurobasal and Neurobasal-A media for normal neuronal cell culture, growth, and differentiation without the need for an astrocyte feeder layer.
This product, B27 Supplement (50X, Minus Insulin), undergoes strict quality control and sterile filtration. It is serum-free and composed of high-quality antioxidants and various cytokines involved in neuronal survival, synapse maturation, and neurite extension. Without insulin, it remains of the highest quality, enabling efficient culture of various types of neurons while enhancing their survival in long-term culture conditions.
Applications
- Growth and viability maintenance of rat hippocampal neurons and other CNS neurons.
- Additive for neuronal basal culture media.
- Stem cell proliferation and differentiation.
- Maintenance of neuronal tumor cell lines.
- Optimization of prenatal and embryonic neuron activity and long-term viability.
- Expansion of EGF-responsive precursor cells from mouse embryonic striatum and midbrain.
- Differentiation of embryonic stem cells into neuronal lineages (neurons and astrocytes).
- Survival of neurons from embryonic rat striatum, substantia nigra, septum, cortex, and neonatal cerebellum (fetal and adult neurons).
- When combined with β-FGF, supports growth and maintenance of cortical neurons.
- Research on diabetic neuropathy.
Storage
Store at -20ºC, with a shelf life of two years.
Precautions
- This product has been sterile-filtered. Aseptic techniques should be followed during use to prevent contamination.
- If the product becomes cloudy or shows signs of precipitation, discontinue use immediately. Check whether contamination occurred during use or storage, and take precautions to prevent future contamination.
- Based on experimental needs, it is recommended to aliquot and freeze the product to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, which may affect its performance.
- This product does not contain insulin. If insulin is added, its performance will be identical to B27 Supplement (50X, Serum-free).
- L-Ala-Gln and L-Gln can be purchased from us.
