Gibco™ PFHM-II Protein-Free Hybridoma Medium (Powder) is a serum-free, protein-free, and animal origin–free medium specifically formulated to support the growth of hybridomas and myelomas for monoclonal antibody production. Offered in an easy-to-reconstitute powder format, this medium is ideal for laboratories seeking scalable, reproducible culture systems with simplified downstream purification.
Upon reconstitution, PFHM-II becomes a complete, ready-to-use medium requiring no additional supplementation. It contains L-glutamine and phenol red and is suitable for both suspension and stationary cultures, including cholesterol-dependent lines like NS0 (with the addition of 250× Cholesterol Lipid Concentrate).
Manufactured in a cGMP-compliant, FDA-registered, and ISO 13485–certified facility, PFHM-II powder ensures consistency, quality, and traceability, making it a suitable choice for regulated research and preclinical manufacturing.
Key Features
- Powder Format for 10 L: Cost-effective and scalable format for high-volume culture.
