Product Description Cardiac Myocyte Growth Supplement (CMGS) is a medium supplement designed for the optimal growth of normal human cardiac myocytes in vitro. It is a sterile, concentrated (100X) solution which contains growth factors, hormones, and proteins necessary for the culture of normal human cardiac myocytes. The supplement is formulated (quantitatively and qualitatively) to provide a defined and optimally balanced growth environment that maximally promotes the growth of normal human cardiac myocytes in vitro. The supplement is designed as an additive for cardiac myocyte medium (CMM, Cat. No. 6201) and should be used in conjunction with that medium.
Components CMGS is packaged in the quantity of supplement suited for a 500 ml bottle of cardiac myocyte medium. When a 500 ml bottle of cardiac myocyte medium is supplemented with CMGS, the final concentrations of the supplement components per milliliter will be BSA 10 μg, apo-transferrin 10 μg, insulin 5 μg, EGF 2 ng, FGF-2 2 ng, IGF-I 2 ng, hydrocortisone 1 μg and retinoic acid 10-8 M.
