ESGRO COMPLETE PLUS CLONAL GRADE MEDIUM 500ML (C005B-314802)

General description

ESGRO Complete PLUS Clonal Grade Medium is a defined serum-free medium provided with a selective GSK3β inhibitor to enhance viability of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells and increased maintenance of pluripotency in the absence of serum and feeder cells. This medium is intended for mouse ES cell expansion and growth at clonal density in serum-free conditions. The mouse ES cells should maintain germ line competency.

Application

Suitable for ES cell derivation, transfection and selection, in addition to general cell passaging and growth.
Media can be used on feeder dependent/independent ES cell lines.

Important passaging information
Use of one of the below listed cell dissociation solutions is imperative while passaging ES cells using ESGRO Complete products. Standard trypsin protocols used to passage ES cells grown in serum containing media typically result in over trypsinization causing the cells to lift off the plates and form abnormal ball-like structures.
Recommended products include:
ESGRO Complete^™ Accutase (Cat # SF006)
ESGRO Complete Trypsin Solution (proprietary) (Cat # SF007)
ESGRO Complete Enzyme-Free Dissociation Solution (proprietary) (Cat # SF009)

Components

1. ESGRO Complete Clonal Grade Medium: (Catalogue No. SF001-C) One (1) 100 mL bottle containing original clonal grade medium. Complete formulation containing self-renewal factors, no need to add LIF. pH 7.1-7.3

2. GSK3β Inhibitor Supplement: (Catalogue No. SF012-050) One (1) 50 µL vial containing selective GSK3β inhibitor.

Quality

QC PROTOCOL:

Low density plating assay:
1. Plate feeder independent early passage ES cells onto gelatin coated 10 cm plastic tissue culture dish at 1000 cells/10 cm dish in 10-20 mL of Clonal Grade Medium.
2. Change medium every 2-4 days.
3. Monitor for clonal growth with alkaline phosphatase stain.

Colony formation should occur over 4-6 days. The majority of colonies should be alkaline phosphatase positive and show no signs of differentiation.
