Formulation Serum-Free
Species Human
Applications Cell Culture, Differentiation, Maintenance
Description Culture, differentiate, and mature neurons derived from human embryonic stem (ES) or induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells in a complete medium optimized to promote, rather than inhibit neuronal activity. For your convenience, Neuronal Medium N2-A & SM1 Kit includes Neuronal Medium (basal medium) and supplements for culturing human ES/iPS-derived neuronal progenitor cells. Serum-free Neuronal Medium mimics the extracellular environment of the central nervous system (CNS) to yield a higher proportion of synaptically active neurons. Brewer’s B27-based SM1 Neuronal Supplement ensures cell health and encourages neurite outgrowth and branching in short- and long-term serum-free cultures, and N2 Supplement-A supports the in vitro differentiation of ES/iPS-derived cells to neuronal subtypes. For lineage-specific differentiation requiring growth factors, please see hPSC Neuron Kit, which also includes BDNF and GDNF. To avoid shocking your cells with media changes, you can also use medium when performing functional assays, such as microelectrode array-based recordings or live-fluorescent imaging.
