The Gibco™ B-27™ Supplement (50X) is the original, serum-free formulation designed to support the growth, viability, and differentiation of neurons derived from embryonic, postnatal, and adult central nervous system (CNS) tissue.
Manufactured under cGMP and ISO 13485-certified conditions, each lot of B-27 Supplement undergoes rigorous performance testing to confirm its ability to sustain primary hippocampal neuron cultures.
As the first and most-cited neuronal cell culture supplement, B-27 has become the gold standard for reproducible, high-quality serum-free neural culture, enabling consistent results across neurobiology and stem cell differentiation studies.
Key Features
- Serum-Free, Defined Formulation: Ensures consistency, reproducibility, and reduced variability in neuronal cultures.
- Lot-to-Lot Reliability: Every batch is performance-tested for neuron culture support.
- Versatile Compatibility: Optimized for use with Neurobasal™ or Neurobasal™-A media.
- Broad Applicability: Supports neurons, neural stem cells (NSCs), and pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived neural lineages.
- High Quality & Compliance: cGMP manufacturing under FDA-registered, ISO 13485-certified facilities in Grand Island, NY.
- Shelf Life: 12 months; store at −5 to −20 °C and protect from light.
- Research Use Only (RUO): Not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
