General description

The microcarrier of choice for cells that are difficult to culture in vitro - particularly for cells with an epithelial-like morphology. Gamma-sterilized and ready to use for quick culture start-up. Delivered in a convenient, single-use container system for easy transfer to various cell culture vessels. Supplied dry to save storage space and facilitate transportation. Enable culturing of anchorage-dependent cells in single-use bioreactor to eliminate the need for cleaning and cleaning validation. Supported by extensive product documentation to facilitate regulatory filing. Serum-free function testing to ensure performance.Successful serial subcultivation protocolsCytodex 3 Gamma is designed by chemically coupling of a thin layer of denatured porcine collagen type 1 to the cross-linked dextran matrix. As the collagen surface layer can be digested by a variety of proteolytic enzymes, harvest of such cells from the microcarriers can be performed with maintained high cell viability and membrane integrity. This feature of Cytodex 3 Gamma is beneficial in the development of successful serial subcultivation protocols for scaling up culture volumes.
