Product Information

Cell Reservoir One is a serum-free cell culture freezing medium, which contains a water-soluble glycoprotein SERICIN isolated from the silkworm cocoon as a major constituent. SERICIN shows the same high efficacy of cryopreservation as FBS, and reduces the cell toxicity of DMSO. As DMSO is known to have adverse effects on cellular functions, especially Embryonic Stem Cells, Cell Reservoir One is available both with and without DMSO.

Application

Application 1

Mouse ES cells: Viability after thawing

Mouse ES cells: Viability after thawing-1

Mouse ES cells: Viability after thawing-2

Jurkat: Human T Cell Lymphoblast-like Cell Line
