Vitronectin (VTN-N) Recombinant Human Protein, Truncated

Vitronectin (VTN-N) is a recombinant human protein that provides a defined surface for feeder-free culture of human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). When used with Essential 8 Medium (Cat. No. A1517001), VTN-N has been proven to maintain pluripotency and normal growth characteristics in multiple PSC lines.

• Proven to maintain pluripotency and normal growth characteristics in multiple PSC lines when used with Essential 8 Medium
• Supports PSC growth for >50 passages without any signs of karyotypic abnormalities and to maintain the ability of PSCs to differentiate into all three germ line lineages
• Supports human pluripotent stem cell attachment and survival better than wild-type vitronectin when used in conjunction with Essential 8 Medium
• Optimized—designed in the laboratory of James Thomson for use with Essential 8 Medium
• Defined—for reduced variability in your PSC cultures
• Supports human pluripotent stem cell attachment and survival better than wild type vitronectin
• Optimal environment for feeder-free pluripotent stem cell culture
• Defined, recombinant human protein that reduces variability in your PSC cultures compared to human-plasma derived vitronectin and standard basement membrane extracts (BMEs)
