General

As a model system of the vascular system, endothelial cells are cultivated in vitro. The segregation of growth factors and the maintaining of the selective permeable anti-thrombogen barrier, as well as the metabolism of lipids, are important factors for the interpretation of the complete system. Serum free cultivation with PAA's Endothelial Cell Medium avoids toxic side effects and high endotoxin levels. Defined composition and the absence of serum specific batch variations provides reliable results.

Features

  • Serum free defined medium
  • Ready to use
  • Optimized for the cultivation of umbilical arterial and dermal micro-vascular endothelial cells

Advantages

  • No batch to batch variation
  • High level of reproducibility
  • No contamination risk
  • Low endotoxin level
  • No influence on the endothelial cell marker
  • Individual components available

The endothelial cell medium is not only available as complete medium but also as a basal medium plus the individual components as supplement.
