Gibco Human Plasma-like Medium (HPLM) is a new formulation designed to resemble the natural cellular environment found in the body, mimicking the metabolic profile of human plasma.
With the super low cell attachment surface, Thermo Scientific Nunclon Sphera flasks, plates and dishes consistently promote 3D spheroids and organoids culture, aiding you in cancer spheroid formation. See the products
To help guide your 3D research, our R&D teams have developed suggested protocols for the generation of spheroids from the most commonly used cancer cell lines using Nunclon Sphera cell culture plastics and Gibco Media. See the protocols
When performing wound healing assays, or scratch assays, to determine the migratory potential of cancer cells, it is important to have a growth factor that does not degrade in cell culture conditions. Native basic fibroblast growth factor degrades rapidly at 37°C, adding undesired variability. Gibco Heat Stable bFGF is a superior solution to the problem by maintaining ≥ 80% bioactivity at 37°C for at least 72 hours. See the products
Gibco PB-MAX Karyotyping Medium is a fully supplemented medium developed for the short-term culture of peripheral blood lymphocytes for cytogenetic studies and in vitro diagnostic procedures. See the product
Gibco MarrowMAX Bone Marrow Medium is a fully supplemented medium developed for the short-term culture of bone marrow and other hematopoietic cells for cytogenetic studies and in vitro diagnostic procedures. See the product

Gibco cell culture is critical to your success. Gibco Cancer Basics is an introduction to cancer cell culture, covering topics such as the biology of cancer, cell line culture, and the culture of cancer spheroids and cancer organoids. Download our free cancer culture handbook featuring an overview of specific cancers and the ten hallmarks of cancer.
View these cancer line–specific protocols that describe conditions for consistent culture and transfection of popular breast, liver, lung, and prostate cancer cell lines.
In addition to traditional 2D cancer culture, scientists are investigating 3D models such as spheroid cultures as a more physiologically relevant model. This application note provides a background to cancer spheroid culture.
Transfection protocols for the most-studied cancer cell lines and cancer types, designed to help you get the results you want the first time with minimal optimization. Find your cell line–specific protocol for breast, lung, prostate, or liver cancer. The new protocols provide you with a step-by-step guide to help ensure high transfection efficiency with low toxicity for your specific cancer cell line.
Gibco Cell Culture Heroes spotlights PhD and postdoc researchers across the globe with the primary focus of telling the story of their research through global webinars. This program promotes education and creates a community amongst researchers who are driving tomorrow's breakthroughs using cell culture.
