Panserin 401 is a fully defined, serum-free, ready-to-use allround medium for the cultivation of a wide variety of adherent and non-adherent cells. It is based on Iscove’s MEM with trace elements, albumin, cholesterol, soy lipids and vitamins, contains no growth or attachment factors, and keeps protein and animal-derived components below 0.2 % w/v. Because it contains no growth factors, it also provides a clean background for studying the effects of specific growth factors added to the culture. Cell types successfully cultivated in Panserin 401 include hybridoma, lymphocytes, macrophages, fibroblasts, melanocytes, carcinoma cells, HEK, HeLa and CHO cells.

A defined base for many cell types. Panserin 401 is built on Iscove’s MEM with a defined, low-protein composition (< 0.2 % w/v protein and animal-derived components) and no growth or attachment factors, so it supports a wide range of adherent and non-adherent cells and gives a clean background for growth-factor studies. Like every PAN-Biotech product, it is available in GMP quality on request – manufactured GMP EU Annex 1-compliant by PAN-Celltech.

Why Panserin 401

  • Fully defined & serum-free – Iscove’s MEM base with < 0.2 % w/v protein and animal-derived components for lot-to-lot consistency.
  • Allround – suitable for a wide variety of adherent and non-adherent cells (hybridoma, lymphocytes, macrophages, fibroblasts, HEK, HeLa, CHO and more).
  • No growth or attachment factors – gives a clean background for growth-factor studies; coating can support attachment-dependent cells.
  • One partner to GMP – available in GMP quality on request for regulated workflows.

Frequently asked questions

What is Panserin 401 used for?

It is a fully defined, serum-free allround medium for the cultivation of a wide variety of adherent and non-adherent cells, including hybridoma, lymphocytes, macrophages, fibroblasts, HEK, HeLa and CHO cells.

Does it contain growth factors?

No. Panserin 401 contains no growth or attachment factors, which gives a clean background for studying growth factors added to the culture. For attachment-dependent cells, coating the vessel (e.g. gelatine, collagen, poly-D-lysine or fibronectin) may help.

Which pack sizes are available?

Panserin 401 is available in 100 ml (P04-710401M) and 500 ml (P04-710401).

Is a GMP grade available?

Yes. Every PAN-Biotech product is available in GMP quality on request, manufactured GMP EU Annex 1-compliant by PAN-Celltech.
