Description
PAN-Biotech Panexin NTA is a ready-to-use, fully defined serum substitute for the cultivation of adherent cells under serum-free conditions. This sterile product can be used at the standard concentration of 10 % in the cell culture. It supports the adherent growth of many cell types in an optimum manner.
For xeno-free, pharma-grade requirements, please see Panexin NTA Pharma Grade.
Composition
Panexin NTA contains purified proteins (< 2 % w/v), lipids, salts, amino acids, trace elements, attachment factors, hormones and traces of animal-derived components (< 2% w/v). Panexin NTA contains no growth factors, undefined hydrolysates or peptones. Panexin NTA Pharma Grade is the xeno-free version of Panexin NTA. Customized formulations (e.g. without hormones and insulin) on request.
Advantages
Panexin NTA is designed to replace or to reduce serum in the cell culture in a very simple manner. In most cases there is no need to change the basal medium. As Panexin NTA is fully defined and contains no peptones or hydrolysates, lot testing is no more necessary. It also allows high reproducibility and a simplified downstream process. Panexin NTA contains no growth factors and enables defined proliferation and differentiation of stem cells. Characterization studies of growth factors will obtain more reproducible and clearer results. Panexin NTA is also useful to develop sensitive cell-based in vitro tests and co-culture procedures. For cell lines which require specific growth factors these should be added in a concentration as previously used.
Suitability
Panexin NTA is suitable for the cultivation of a variety of adherent cells under serum-free culture conditions (please see figure 1) or to reduce the necessary FBS amount in cell culture.
