Cytiva, 17048503, Cytodex 3 (Dry Powder), 500g

Microcarrier culture Microcarrier culture is a technique which makes possible the practical high yield culture of anchorage-dependent cells. Cytodex has been specifically developed for the culture of a wide range of animal cells in culture volumes ranging from a few ml to more than 6000 L. Using Cytodex in simple suspension culture systems provides yields of several million cells per mL. Formation Formed by chemically coupling a thin layer of denatured collagen to the cross-linked dextran matrix, this is the microcarrier of choice for cells that may be difficult to culture in vitro , and particularly for cells with an epithelial like morphology.
