FastGro Synthetic, chemically defined FBS replacement, animal free
SKU: 0926400-CF
FastGro allows culturing cells in vitro without the use of serum and without any animal or human derived compound. FastGro is a fully defined additive, avoiding the need for serum, for a wide range of cell culture practices. Since FastGro is chemically defined it avoids lot-to-lot variations. All components in FastGro are highly purified and identified chemical compounds.
Culturing cells in a FastGro enriched medium represents a number of benefits as compared to conventional FBS enriched media.
- Due to its chemically defined nature there are no lot-to-lot variations. This skips the need for testing new batches of serum.
- There is no interference of unknown serum compounds in your research.
- Since it doesn't contain hormones nor cytokines it doesn't bias your research data.
- FastGro is safe to use since it does not contain animal or human derived materials.
- It can be stored in the refrigerator. No need for thawing before use.
Examples of cells which have successfully been cultured on FastGro enriched medium:
- Liver epithelial cells
