The Gibco™ Neurobasal™ Medium is a serum-free basal medium specifically formulated for the long-term culture, maintenance, and maturation of pure neuronal cell populations.
Developed to support pre-natal and embryonic hippocampal neurons, Neurobasal Medium eliminates the need for an astrocyte feeder layer when used with Gibco™ B-27™ Supplements, providing a consistent and defined environment for neuronal growth.
Optimized for neuronal survival, differentiation, and electrophysiological functionality, Neurobasal Medium is the trusted foundation for in vitro neurobiology research and neuronal modeling.
Key Features
- Serum-Free Formulation: Enables consistent long-term maintenance of neuronal cultures without astrocyte feeders.
- Optimized for CNS Cells: Supports embryonic, postnatal, and adult hippocampal neurons.
- High Performance: Promotes neuronal survival and maturation in both low- and high-density cultures.
- Reliable Quality: Each lot tested for endotoxin, sterility, osmolality, pH, and culture performance.
- Compatible Media System: Designed for use with B-27™ or B-27™ Plus Supplements for optimal results.
- Storage: 2–8 °C, protected from light.
- Shelf Life: 12 months from manufacture.
- Research Use Only (RUO): Not for diagnostic or therapeutic procedures.
