Recommended Media

UltraMDCK Serum-free Renal Cell Medium is designed to support the growth of MADIN-DARBY Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells at low and high plating densities.
The medium contains only two proteins: recombinant human insulin and bovine transferrin, yielding a very low protein formulation.

Storage = 2ºC to 8ºC

ProVero™ 1 Serum-free Medium is a protein-free medium designed to support the growth of MDCK and vero cells. It contains HEPES and sodium bicarbonate buffer.
The absence of proteins and only very low levels of human recombinant insulin facilitate both downstream processing and regulatory compliance.

Some Vero cell strains require additional supplementation with 5.0 µg/L rhEGF for optimal vero cell growth.

Storage = 2°C to 8°C
