Defined Keratinocyte SFM is a serum-free defined medium optimized for the isolation and expansion of human keratinocytes without the need for bovine pituitary extract (BPE) supplementation or the use of fibroblast feeder layers.

The growth-promoting activity of BPE has been replaced by the inclusion of growth promoting agents which enhance consistent product performance. These growth-promoting agents also maintain cell morphology, physiological markers, and growth. The medium is formulated to inhibit fibroblast proliferation and has a low calcium concentration (<0.1 mM), allowing for the isolation and culture of highly enriched populations of undifferentiated keratinocytes.

Note: This formulation contains some human and animal origin components.

Note: A Defined Keratinocyte-SFM Master File has been submitted to the FDA. Permission to cross-reference the Master File may be obtained by contacting Technical Services or your local Sales Representative. Defined Keratinocyte-SFM consists of a basal liquid medium and frozen supplement which is added at the time of use. The fully supplemented medium has a shelf-life of 10 weeks under normal use conditions. Product performance is confirmed by evaluation of human primary keratinocyte growth.

Which serum-free media can be used to culture human keratinocytes?

There are a variety of options for serum-free culture of human keratinocytes. Keratinocyte SFM (Cat. No. 17005-042) is a widely used kit that includes the basal medium, bovine pituitary extract (BPE) and Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF). If you would like a serum-free, defined culture system, the options are the Defined Keratinocyte SFM kit (Cat. No. 10744-019) or Epilife medium (Cat. No. M-EPI-500-CA) supplemented with EDGS (Cat. No. S-012-5). If you would like an animal origin free defined system, Epilife medium (Cat. No. M-EPI-500-CA) with S7 supplement (Cat. No. S-017-5) is an excellent choice.
