Description
VascuLife® EnGS (containing Endothelial Cell Growth Supplement) is a low-serum (2% FBS) medium optimized for the culture of Human Endothelial Cells, including: Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC), Human Aortic Endothelial Cells, and other human large-vessel endothelial cells.
VascuLife® supports the growth of these cells in a low-serum environment without human VEGF.
VascuLife® Basal Medium contains no antimicrobials and no phenol red.
Kit format for formulation flexibility: VascuLife® EnGS culture medium is offered in a kit format composed of basal medium and associated supplements and growth factors called “LifeFactors® (for details click)”. This kit allows you to prepare fresh medium in your laboratory, extending shelf life and enhancing performance.
Protective packaging: VascuLife® Basal Medium is provided in a light-protected 500 mL bottle. The remaining LifeFactors® (growth factors and supplements) are packaged in a convenient gas-impermeable pouch for easy storage.
VascuLife® EnGS Medium grows HUVEC and other human large-vessel endothelial cells, without the addition of human VEGF, at rates that meet or exceed other commercially available serum-containing media while maintaining excellent cell morphology. In comparisons with other commercially available media, VascuLife® shows superior proliferation at different seeding densities.
