Gibco B-27 Supplement minus vitamin A is a customized, serum-free formulation based on the original, most cited neuronal cell culture supplement, designed specifically to support the proliferation and cultivation of neural stem cells (NSCs) and neural progenitor cells. By excluding vitamin A (also known as retinyl acetate or retinol), this variant prevents the differentiation-inducing effects of retinoic acid, making it ideal for maintaining NSCs and neural progenitors in their undifferentiated state.

  • Optimized for NSC proliferation—by removing vitamin A, this supplement is perfectly suited for the growth and expansion of embryonic and adult neural stem cells and neural precursors, without inducing differentiation
  • Versatile cultivation—supports the cultivation of neural progenitor cells and NSCs in both neurospheres in suspension and adherent monolayer cultures, providing flexibility in your experimental design. Ideal for cell culture where retinoic acid signaling must be controlled.
  • High quality—cGMP-manufactured to ensure the highest standards of quality and consistency. Each batch undergoes rigorous performance testing, including assessments of its ability to support the differentiation of human neural stem cells to neurons.
  • Comprehensive testing—every lot is tested for endotoxins, sterility, and mycoplasma to ensure the utmost safety and reliability
  • Proven performance—derived from the proprietary formulation of the original B-27 Supplement, trusted by researchers worldwide for its consistent and reliable results

Choose Gibco B-27 Supplement, minus vitamin A, for an optimized, high-quality solution that supports the proliferation of neural stem cells while preventing unwanted differentiation influenced by retinoic acid, ensuring consistent and reliable results for your research.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Can B-27 supplement be filtered?

Yes, the protein content in this product is high enough so filtering through a low protein binding filter as a 50X or 1X in solution should not be a problem.

Can Neurobasal Medium alone or Neurobasal Medium supplemented with B-27 supplement be frozen to extend product shelf life?

No, it is not recommended to freeze media due to the potential of precipitates forming upon thaw. Inorganic salts and amino acids in the formulation may come out of solution when exposed to temperature fluctuations. These precipitates will not go back into solution easily once formed.

Do you offer B-27 supplements with and without insulin?

Yes, we do offer B-27 Supplement, minus insulin (Cat. Nos. A1895601 and A1895602). All our other B-27 supplements do contain insulin.

Can I thaw B-27 Supplements in a 37 degrees C water bath or incubator?

We do not recommend thawing at 37 degrees C. Best results are observed upon thawing at room temperature for approximately 2 hrs or overnight at 2-8 degrees C.
