Recommended Media

Insect-XPRESS™ Protein-free Insect Cell Medium is a formulation designed to support the growth of insect cell lines derived from Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9 and Sf21).
Cell densities in excess of 8.3 x 10^6 cells/ml can be achieved with suspension cultures of Sf9 cells using Insect-XPRESS™ Medium and an excess of oxygen. This formulation can also be used for stationary mono layer cultures and shake-flask cultures.
Insect-XPRESS™ Medium contains L-glutamine and supports superior production of recombinant proteins when using the Baculovirus Expression Vector System (BEVS).

Storage = 2°C to 8°C
