R&D Systems Cell Culture Media

R&D Systems^™ Classical Media for cell culture are designed to support the in vitro cultivation of cell lines, primary mammalian cells, and advanced cell culture models. With over 30 years of experience, our classical cell culture media are manufactured with the same quality and lot-to-lot consistency that researchers worldwide expect from our highly bioactive recombinant proteins.

Advanced and Specialized Media

Immune Cell Culture Media

Immune cells (T cells, NK cells, B cells, etc.) hold promise in defining new immuno-oncology targets and as sources for cell therapy manufacturing. Our portfolio of ExCellerate^™ Immune Cell Culture Media is formulated for the robust xeno-free, ex vivo expansion and maintenance of specific leukocyte and monocyte populations.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell Culture Media

Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells that possess anti-inflammatory properties, making them attractive targets for research and development of regenerative medicine therapeutics. Ex vivo culture of MSCs requires specialized cell culture media that optimizes expansion while maintaining cell multipotency. R&D Systems offers serum-containing, serum-free, xeno-free, and GMP cell culture media options for MSCs.

Endothelial Cell Culture Medium

Primary endothelial cells are used for the study of developmental and disease mechanisms involving the blood vessels, such as angiogenesis. Culturing endothelial cells requires media supplemented with FGF basic, IGF-1, VEGF 165, EGF, and other specialized additives. Our Endothelial Cell Growth Medium is a low serum formulation that features a base culture media with a supplement designed to optimize the long-term culture of human endothelial cells. Base media and supplements can be purchased together or separately.

Pluripotent Stem Cells

Expansion and maintenance of embryonic (ESC) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) require defined media conditions that ensure maintained expression of stemness markers and cell pluripotency. R&D Systems offers media for the culture of mouse embryonic stem cells as well as a stem cell-specific cryopreservation medium.
