KBM ADSC-1

KBM ADSC-1&2, a culture medium for adipose-derived stem cells, enables long-term culture  while maintaining the undifferentiated state of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC)  (*) .

KBM ADSC-1  is a ready-to-use medium containing 5% FBS. We  also sell  KBM ADSC-2,
which is KBM ADSC-1 without FBS .

(*)  Differentiation into fat, bone, and cartilage confirmed

Intended use

It can be used for research on differentiation induction (fat, bone, cartilage, etc.) and lipid production.

Culture conditions

  • Cells: ADSC (commercially available P1 frozen cells)
  • Container: 6-well cell culture plate (Corning, product number: 3516)
  • Culture:
    4.75 × 104  cells  were seeded in a 6-well cell culture plate. On day 3 of culture, the cells were counted, subcultured, and analyzed for surface markers by flow cytometry.

(c): P5 cells 21 days after osteogenic differentiation induction (Alizarin Red S staining) (d): P3 cells 28 days after induction of chondrocyte differentiation (Alcian Blue staining)

Culture conditions

  • Cells: ADSCs (commercially available P1 frozen cells) cultured for 2 passages in KBM ADSC-1.
  • Container: 24-well cell culture plate (FALCON, product number: 353047)
  • culture:
    • 6.25 x 104  fat  cells  were seeded on a 24-well cell culture plate. On the first day of culture in culture medium (D-MEM(H) + 10% FBS + 1mM Na pyruvate),
      differentiation induction was started with KBM Adipogenic-DM (tentative), the medium was changed every 2-3 days, and on the 7th day of culture, staining was done with Oil Red O.
    • 6.25 x 104  bone  cells  were seeded in a 24-well cell culture plate. On the first day of culture in culture medium (D-MEM(H) + 10% FBS),
      differentiation induction was started with KBM Osteogenic-DM1 (tentative), and the medium was changed every 2 to 3 days. On the 21st day of culture, the cells were stained with Alizarin Red S.
    • 6.25 x 104  cells  of cartilage  were seeded onto a 24-well cell culture plate. On the first day of culture in culture medium (D-MEM(H) + 10% FBS),
      differentiation induction was started with a general cartilage differentiation induction medium, the medium was changed every 3 to 4 days, and on the 28th day of culture, staining was performed with Alcian Blue.
