Prostate Epithelium Culture Media
CELLnTEC has the following specialised media for rat and human prostate epithelium:
| Cat # | Description | Species | PCT | Defined | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CnT-12 | PCT Prostate epithelium medium | Human | $119.50 | ||
| CnT-52 | PCT Prostate epithelium medium, Low BPE | Human | $119.50 | ||
| All media supplied as kits containing both 500mL basal medium and separate frozen supplements | |||||
CnT-12
By targeting the progenitor cell population in a tissue sample, these fully defined PCT media offer significant improvements in isolation and growth over alternative defined formualtions.
These defined media can even equal or improve on the performance of traditional non-defined media, for example those containing Bovine Pituitary Extract.
For more details on how defined CnT-12 outperformed a popular non-defined prostate medium.
The optimum seeding density for CnT-12 is 4x10^3 cells per square cm. If you are restricted to densities below 1x10^3 cells per square cm, then CnT-52 may provide improved isolation efficiency and growth rate.
CnT-52
Based on an optimal nutrient profile, CnT-52 offers the absolute best in vitro performance by combining all the progenitor cell retention benefits of PCT, with the growth boost of BPE.
In addition, the Low BPE formulation of CnT-52 contains 4-8x less BPE than alternative media, thus minimising any potential variability, and ensuring maximum accuracy and reproducibility in your experiments.
The optimal seeding density for CnT-52 is 2x10^3 cells per square cm, however this medium will also enable good isolation and growth at densities of 1x10^3 cells per square cm and below.
