X-VIVO™ chemically defined, serum-free haematopoietic cell media provide nutritionally complete and balanced environments for a variety of cells, including lymphokine activated killer (LAK) cells, peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL), and tumour infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL).
These media do not contain any exogenous growth factors, artificial stimulators of cellular proliferation, or undefined supplements. They are devoid of any protein kinase C stimulators and are suitable for the investigation of second messenger systems in the activation of human and murine lymphocytes. The formulations are complete and contain pharmaceutical grade human albumin, recombinant human insulin, and pasteurised human transferrin. All X-VIVO™ media products are manufactured under current GMPs and are listed with the FDA in a product master file.
