Knockout™ Serum Replacement (Knockout™ SR) is a defined, serum-free formulation used to support the growth of undifferentiated ES (Embryonic Stem Cells) and iPS (Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells) in culture. It directly replaces FBS in existing protocols. One of the most important parameters surrounding ES cell culture is the maintenance of ES cells in an undifferentiated state. Until now, FBS was the only option for nutritive supplementation of ES and iPS cell media. Unfortunately, FBS also contains factors which can promote differentiation of ES cells. Thus, each lot must be screened prior to ...

Category: Products & Services > Cell Culture & Transfection Reagents > Supplements > Sodium Pyruvate
Sodium Pyruvate is commonly added to cell culture medium as an energy source in addition to glucose. Since the cells make sodium pyruvate as an intermediate metabolite in the glycolysis pathway, it is not necessary to supplement all cultures. However, if the cells have been grown in medium supplemented with sodium pyruvate, we recommend the supplementation is continued as the cells become accustomed to this addition and their growth will lag without it. Gibco® Sodium Pyruvate, 100 mM Solution is formulated as 11 g per liter of water. The final concentration of sodium pyruvate used in most cell...
