Stemcell, 05455, MesenCult™-ACF Chondrogenic Differentiation Kit

MesenCult™-ACF Chondrogenic Differentiation Medium is animal component-free (ACF) and specifically formulated for the in vitro differentiation of primary human mesenchymal stromal cells, and hPSC-derived mesenchymal progenitor cells (MSCs; also known as mesencyhymal stem cells) into chondrogenic lineage cells, including chondrocytes. This medium is suitable for the differentiation of human bone marrow (BM)-, adipose tissue (AT)- and synovium (S)-derived MSCs previously culture-expanded in serum-containing medium (e.g. MesenCult™ Proliferation Kit [Catalog #05411]) or animal component-free MesenCult™-ACF Plus Medium [Catalog #05445]). MesenCult™-ACF Chondrogenic Differentiation Medium induces robust chondrogenic differentiation of human MSCs with as few as 3 x 10^5 cells and as early as day 14.
