  2. I will be using cardiac fibroblasts and aside from normal growth media (full amount of Serum) I have to serum starve the cells before my experiments. What media can I purchase where I can only change the amount of serum, not other supplements?

    1 answer
    1. This product does contain serum in the formulation. A pre-formulated supplement is included with the medium that contains serum, bFGF, and insulin. The supplement, as well as any additional serum, may be added or withheld at the end user's discretion. Product 116F-500, an alternative fibroblast growth medium that does not contain serum that may be suitable for serum-starved experimental conditions, may also be of interest.
