Note: Cell lines from different sources, and different clones of the same cell line, may have highly specific nutritional requirements and may therefore prefer one medium over another. More than one medium formulation (if available) should be evaluated to determine the best option.
Definitions from Table 1
Serum-Free Media (SFM)
GIBCO® serum-free media do not require supplementation with serum, but may contain discrete proteins or bulk protein fractions.
Protein-Free Media (PFM)
GIBCO® protein-free media contain no proteins, but may contain plant or yeast hydrolysates. Many are animal origin free.
Chemically Defined Media (CDM)
GIBCO® chemically defined media contain no proteins, hydrolysates,
or components of unknown composition. These media are
animal origin free and all components have a known chemical structure.

- Eliminate variability with a completely defined system
- Improve reproducibility with consistent performance
- Decrease possibility of contamination by adventitious agents
- Save time with simplified purification and downstream processing
