Recommended Media

HCM is  a serum-free medium for maintenance of cultures prior to and during experimental procedures.
It is the preferred medium when working with cryopreserved human and animal hepatocytes.

HMM is a serum-free medium that may be used to maintain fresh plated human and animal hepatocytes in culture during testing.

Hepatic media for the plating of fresh and cryopreserved, human and animal, primary hepatocytes. The medium consists of a basal Medium with a supplement.

MP100: Hepatocyte Plating Medium w/Supplement (MP100-1 + MP100-2), 100ml
MP250: : Hepatocyte Plating Medium w/Supplement (MP250-1 + MP250-2), 250 ml

Filter:
The table below shows data for the cell type and Nucleofector™ Platform selected. Those data are either based on Lonza Optimized Protocols or on results shared from customers who performed an optimization based on our guidelines. In case no data are shown for the selected Nucleofector™ Platform, please take a look at our optimization strategy to get further guidance on how to easily determine optimal Nucleofection conditions yourself.
