Product description

ULTIβ1-BF® medium is specifically designed for the culture of EndoC-βH5® EndoC-βH3® and EndoC-βH1® cells and the maintenance of their functional activity and beta cell identity and maturity. ULTIβ1-BF® medium is the BSA-free version of the original version of ULTIβ1® medium. ULTIβ1-BF® requires to be completed with 2% (w/v) of Fatty acid free fraction V bovine serum albumin (Fatty acid free BSA). For ULTIβ1-BF® medium reconstitution, please rigorously respects Fatty acid free BSA reference 10775835001 from Roche to obtain robust and validated results. ULTIβ1-BF® is chemically defined and validated through rigorous internal quality control qualification.
