All lots of PromoCell Pericyte Growth Medium are subjected to comprehensive quality control tests using primary human placenta-derived pericytes. Each lot is checked for growth promoting activity, adherence rate, and typical morphology of the tested pericytes. Approved in-house lots of media are used as a reference. In addition, all lots of media have been tested for the absence of microbial contaminants (fungi, bacteria, mycoplasma).
