Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium (ITS -G) (100X) Gibco™
Gibco® Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium (ITS-G) is used as a basal medium supplement in order to reduce the amount of fetal bovine serum (FBS) needed to culture cells. Originally used with RPMI 1640 and Minimum Essential Medium (MEM), ITS-G solution is now routinely used with other basal media to support a wide variety of cell types in the presence of 2–4% FBS.
Insulin promotes glucose and amino acid uptake, lipogenesis, intracellular transport, and the synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. Transferrin is an iron carrier and it may also help to reduce toxic levels of oxygen radicals and peroxide. Selenium, as sodium selenite, is a co-factor for glutathione peroxidase and other proteins, and is used as an anti-oxidant in media.
The complete formulation is available.

StemPro™ Neural Supplement Gibco™
StemPro Neural Supplement is an optimal, convenient, and cost-effective serum-free supplement for the proliferation of mammalian neural stem and progenitor cells such as human and rat neural stem cells (NSC) and glial progenitor cells (GPC). Due to their scarce availability, the in vitro expansion of these cells has been a challenge to academic and clinical researchers. When combined with the appropriate basal medium and growth factors, StemPro Neural Supplement not only supports the expansion of neuronal progenitor cells but also enables the cells to retain their progenitor status and potential to differentiate into neurons and glial cells.
In recent years, there has been an increased scientific interest in studying neural progenitor cells due to their important role in neurogenesis. Recent advances have also pointed to the potential use of neural progenitor cells as effective therapies for neurodegenerative diseases, such as dopaminergic neural progenitor cells for Parkinson’s Disease and oligoprogenitor cells for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and multiple sclerosis (MS).
For established protocols using StemPro Neural Supplement, access our Gibco Neurobiology Protocol Handbook.

EfficientFeed™ A+ 3X Supplement Gibco™
Gibco EfficientFeed A+ 3X Supplement is a single-part liquid supplement for fed batch addition to the culture of multiple cell lines to assist with process development and maximization of bioreactor utilization. Compared to original CHO CD EfficientFeed A AGT nutrient supplement, EfficientFeed A+ 3X Supplement has components that are super-concentrated from 66.4 g/L (1X AGT) to 199.2 g/L (3X), helping reduce product dilution or increase titers with additional feeding. The supplement is an animal origin-free, chemically defined formulation that contains no proteins, hydrolysates, or components of incompletely defined composition.
Which EfficientFeed+ supplement to choose?
Consider EfficientFeed A+ Supplement when:
• You have used CHO CD EfficientFeed A supplement in the past and wish to explore simpler reconstitution and super-concentration benefits during delivery of key components
• You are currently using CD OptiCHO as your base cell growth medium
Consider EfficientFeed B+ Supplement when:
• You have used CHO CD EfficientFeed B supplement in the past and wish to explore simpler reconstitution and super-concentration benefits during delivery of key components
• You are currently using CD CHO as your base cell growth medium
Consider EfficientFeed C+ Supplement when:

• You are currently using CD FortiCHO as your base cell growth medium
• You are using a base medium with greater than 6 g/L glucose or a hydrolysate at Day 0
Increasing titers
As a complete feed, EfficientFeed+ supplements have been shown to provide multiple-fold increases in titer versus batch culture and are an excellent starting point for process development as ready-to-use single-part liquid feeds.
Maximizing bioreactor utilization
Have you ever wished for more working volume at the start of a bioreactor run to produce more protein, but need too much feeding volume space? Have you ever thought that room for more feeding might achieve a new level of titer from a process and maybe even reduce the number of bioreactor runs needed per year? Using super-concentrated ready-to-feed liquid feeding supplements helps reduce product dilution, increase space for additional feeding, and/or increase the working volume at the start of the run. In fact, you may gain about 20% more bioreactor utilization with this super-concentrated EfficientFeed+ product.
Simplified handling to reduce risk in scale-up
The ability to scale up in liquid or AGT dry format provides ease of handling and storage in manufacturing and other bioprocess settings. Fewer parts and steps in reconstitution mean fewer opportunities for operator error. Further, the ability to store this feed, even when super-concentrated, for the length of a bioreactor run at room temperature, in the dark, helps reduce chances of contamination during closed system connections by reducing the number of connections to the bioreactor to one.

Antibiotic-Antimycotic (100X) Gibco™
Gibco® Antibiotic-Antimycotic is used to prevent bacterial and fungal contamination. This solution contains 10,000 units/mL of penicillin, 10,000 µg/mL of streptomycin, and 25 µg/mL of Gibco Amphotericin B. The antibiotics penicillin and streptomycin prevent bacterial contamination of cell cultures due to their effective combined action against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Amphotericin B prevents fungal contamination of cell cultures due to its inhibition of multi-cellular fungus and yeast.
Penicillin was originally purified from the fungus Penicillium and acts by interfering directly with the turnover of the bacteria cell wall and indirectly by triggering the release of enzymes that further alter the cell wall. Streptomycin was originally purified from Streptomyces griseus. It acts by binding to the 30S subunit of the bacterial ribosome leading to inhibition of protein synthesis and death in susceptible bacteria. Amphotericin B is an antifungal agent that prevents the growth of fungi and yeast by causing an increase in fungal plasma membrane permeability.

Transferrin From Human Serum, Alexa Fluor™ 647 Conjugate Invitrogen™
Transferrin is a monomeric serum glycoprotein (~80,000 daltons) that binds to a specific receptor on the surface of vertebrate cells and delivers up to two Fe3+ atoms via receptor-mediated endocytosis—our labeled LDL complexes are useful tools for studying this phenomenon. Once iron-carrying transferrin proteins are inside endosomes, the acidic environment favors dissociation of iron from the transferrin–receptor complex. Following the release of iron, the apotransferrin is recycled to the plasma membrane, where it is released from its receptor to scavenge more iron. Fluorescent transferrin conjugates can therefore be used with fluorescent LDL to distinguish the lysosomally directed and recycling endosomal pathways.
These experiments are typically performed by adding fluorescently labeled transferrin to cultured cells and analyzing them by microscopy. We offer a biotinylated transferrin conjugate and more than 10 fluorescent versions.
Transferrin Specifications:
• Label (Ex/Em): Alexa Fluor® 647 (650/665)
• Amount: 15 mg solid (contains 5 mg of transferrin conjugate)
Key Applications of Labeled Transferrin
Some of the many applications for labeled transferrin include:
• Image transferrin receptor dynamics using FRET
• Observe receptor trafficking in live cells by confocal laser-scanning microscopy
• Investigate events occurring during endosomal acidification
• Measure transferrin receptor binding affinity in mammals and parasites
For Research Use Only. Not intended for any animal or human therapeutic or diagnostic use.
