This month, the Spotlight on Sustainability falls on the LSG Xeno-Free Cell Culture Essentials Kit — a ground-breaking collection designed to elevate cell culture processes through innovation, efficiency, and environmental consciousness.
By leveraging plant-based, fully defined formulations, the LSG Xeno-Free range supports more ethical and reproducible cell culture practices while helping laboratories reduce variability and improve consistency across experiments.
The kit brings together three advanced solutions, each engineered to address a critical stage of the cell culture workflow:
- CellShip®, a fully defined, xeno-free medium for cell transportation and a forward-thinking alternative to cryopreservation;
- CellSplit®, a plant-derived replacement for traditional porcine or bovine trypsin;
- CellScrew®, which streamlines cell culture workflows by removing the need for washing and pelleting cells.
Beyond sustainability, the LSG Xeno-Free Cell Culture Essentials Kit is built to optimise laboratory workflows. By simplifying key processes and reducing reliance on multiple steps and materials, the kit enables scientists to focus on outcomes while lowering operational complexity.
This integrated approach results in:
- Reduced consumables and water use (by removing the need for washing and pelleting cells)
- Lower energy requirements (through alternatives to cryopreservation)
- Streamlined protocols and time savings
