Tissue Culture Media
The primary purpose of tissue culture media is to provide a synthetic environment within the lab. This synthetic environment then allows cells to thrive and carry out normal functions.
Ideal for primary cell isolation and cell line maintenance, culture media is essential for the isolation and propagation of primary cells obtained from tissues.
PBS cell culture media is recommended for use when investigating the localization and distribution of target proteins in different parts of biological tissue.
Tissue culture media accessories include reagent-grade water, antibiotics, and Corning BioCoat cell culture inserts to assist you with achieving clear and accurate results.
