Scientific resources
CnT-PR-HC is a chemically defined, low calcium (0.07 mM) medium formulation designed for optimal isolation, expansion, and longevity of primary epithelial cells (skin, cornea, oral, mammary).
It is completely free of animal or human-derived components. Higher Certified CnT-Prime contains purified growth factors and an optimized basal medium to increase cell proliferation, and PCT factors to maximize retention of proliferative progenitor cells, increase longevity, and minimize loss through differentiation. It does not contain phenol-red or antibiotics / antimycotics. This medium is provided fully supplemented and frozen.
For maximum isolation efficiency from epithelial tissues, it is recommended to supplement CnT-PR-HC with the Higher Certified IsoBoost supplement (#CnT-ISO-50-HC), which has been found to double cell yield in the first week of culture.
Primary epithelial cells growing in CnT-PR-HC display a highly proliferative phenotype. For differentiation experiments, it is recommended to switch to the CnT-PR-D or CnT-PR-3D differentiation media.
The medium undergoes a range of QC tests in our lab before being released for sale. Please see the datasheet for details.
