Merck, SCM082, ES2N Complete Medium Kit

General description
ES2N Complete medium is a defined serum-free formulation that has been optimized for the differentiation of mouse embryonic stem (ES) and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells into neurons. When used in conjucture with ESGRO Complete Plus medium mouse ES and iPS cells readily differentiate into neurons in a monolayer assay within 9-12 days on gelatin coated culture dishes. When supplemented with bFGF and EGF, this medium enables the isolation and expansion of neural stem cells (NSCs).

Analysis Note
Cell Proliferation Assay: The biological activity of this lot of VEGF was determined by its mitogenic activity on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) with an ED50 of about 1.0 ng/mL. Results may vary depending on the cell line used. VEGF will also stimulate endothelial cells from other species.
