Description
Proliferum® LSR is a serum-free 1:1 FBS replacement suitable for primary and immortalized cell proliferation. Multus Biotechnology has optimized its performance to work in a variety of environments including adherence cell culture, suspension culture, cell isolation, cryopreservation and recovery while maintaining cell proliferation and functionality over multiple passages.
Summary
A critical challenge in cell culture industry and research is the cost of growth media. Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) is often used in cell culture but is unethically sourced and has large price and performance fluctuations. Serum-free formulations are typically expensive, do not always perform well across the different cell lines, and are not designed for scale.
Multus creates ethical high-performing cell culture media and ingredients to accelerate R&D across the life science industry. Proliferum® LSR is designed to grow different mammalian species’ myoblasts, fibroblasts and adipocytes with the key benefits of being serum-free, adaptation-free and demonstrating high performance and versatility across cell types and scaffolding materials over multiple passages.
