General description

Skeletal Muscle Cell Differentiation Medium SupplementMix (basal medium sold separately)

To form a complete medium, it should be combined with the basal medium: C-23260

Application

The Skeletal Muscle Cell Differentiation Medium is a serum-free medium developed to induce the fusion of skeletal muscle cells to myotubes with typical multinucleated syncytia. The media are optimized for primary human cells, but can also be used for murine, rat, canine, and rabbit skeletal muscle cells.Recommended for:Human Skeletal Muscle Cells (SkMC)

Quality

All lots of PromoCell Skeletal Muscle Cell Differentiation Medium is tested for the capacity to fully induce the differentiation of SkMC. 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).

Preparation Note

Final supplement concentrations after addition to the basal medium:Insulin (recombinant human): 10 µg / ml
