Description
Lifeline® Normal Human Bladder Smooth Muscle Cells (HBSMC), when grown in Lifeline® VascuLife® SMC Medium, provide an ideal low serum (5%) culture model for the study of angiogenesis, atherosclerosis, diabetes or vascular/pulmonary biology.
Lifeline® Bladder Smooth Muscle Cells are cryopreserved as primary cells to ensure the highest viability, purity and plating efficiency.
Cells have been isolated from tissue, plated onto culture vessels, expanded, harvested and cryopreserved.
Our Human Smooth Muscle Cells are quality tested in VascuLife® SMC Medium and demonstrate optimal low serum growth over a period of at least 15 population doublings at rates equal to or greater than other serum-supplemented media.
Lifeline® bladder smooth muscle cells are not exposed to antimicrobials or phenol red when cultured in VascuLife® SMC Medium, an advantage since these supplements can cause cell stress and “masking effects” that may negatively impact experimental results. Lifeline® offers these traditional supplements; however, they are not needed, or recommended, to achieve optimal cell performance in most research applications.
Bladder smooth muscle cells can be grown without phenol red or antimicrobials when cultured in VascuLife® SMC Medium.
