PLUS™ Cell Culture Supplement is a commercially manufactured human platelet lysate that serves as a cytokine rich replacement for fetal bovine serum (FBS). PLUS™ is prepared from platelets sourced from FDA-registered blood banks using state of the art manufacturing techniques and provides a safe, serology-tested product with minimal lot-to-lot variation. PLUS™ offers a true xenogenic-free culture platform that does not require addition of animal-derived anticoagulants (e.g., heparin). PLUS™ supports the culture of various human cell types, including mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), adipose derived stem cells (ASCs), dendritic cells, dermal fibroblasts, epidermal keratinocytes, and endothelial cells, and has been tested in both traditional culture systems and advanced bioreactor systems. PLUS™ is available as research grade in bottles and as GMP grade in bags.
