CTS quality

Gibco CTS products are manufactured at a site that uses methods and controls that conform to cGMP for medical devices, 21 CFR Part 820. Our FDA-registered manufacturing sites are ISO 13485-certified. Gibco CTS products follow USP 'ancillary materials for cell, gene, and tissue-engineered products' within the responsibilities applicable to a supplier.*

Accompanied by documentation to support your regulatory filing

Specific intended-use statements, full documentation traceability, and convenient access to our Drug Master File (DMF) are available.

*Other aspects of USP will be the responsibility of the end-user to assess. Thermo Fisher Scientific cannot fulfill USP in regards to application and therapy-specific aspects (e.g., residual assessment and removal of the Ancillary Material).

For Research Use or Manufacturing of Cell, Gene, or Tissue-Based Products. CAUTION: Not intended for direct administration into humans or animals.

What is the difference between AIM V Medium (Cat. Nos. 12055083, 12055091) and CTS AIM V SFM (Cat. Nos. 0870112DK, 0870112BK)?

The difference is in the intended usage of the two media. AIM V Medium (Cat. Nos. 12055083, 12055091) is for research use only whereas CTS AIM V SFM (Cat. Nos. 0870112DK, 0870112BK) is for research use or manufacturing of cell, gene, or tissue-based products.

What is the difference between CTS AIM-V Medium and CTS AIM V SFM?

These two media have comparable performance and same cGMP quality. The main difference is that CTS AIM-V Medium (Cat. Nos. A3830801, A3830802, A4672701) does not contain phenol red and antibiotics. This medium formulation has been used as an ancillary reagent in a therapeutic cancer vaccine approved by FDA.
