Difco™ Yeast Extract, low-dusting (LD)

Description

Difco Yeast Extracts are concentrates of the water-soluble portion of autolyzed Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. Our yeast extracts are derived from primary grown baker’s yeast. These animal origin-free products are suitable for use as multi-functional nutritional supplements in mammalian cell culture, microbial fermentation, and insect cell culture applications. Yeast extract provides essential water-soluble vitamins, amino acids, peptides, and carbohydrates to any medium formulation.

Difco Yeast Extract Low-Dusting (LD) was designed to limit the amount of dust generated compared to other spray-dried yeast extracts. Difco Yeast Extract UF is ultra-filtered and specifically designed for mammalian cell culture applications. With its low endotoxin level and high content of naturally occurring B vitamins, it can be used effectively to reduce the need for fetal bovine serum. It has an endotoxin level of less than or equal to 500 EU/g.
