Human Epidermal Melanocytes, Neonatal

normal Human Epidermal Melanocytes neonatal (HEMn), when grown in LIDer M, provide an ideal low serum culture model, without PMA or Cholera toxin, for the accurate testing of compounds and for use in the study of cancer or dermal biology. HEMn are cryopreserved as primary or secondary cells to ensure the highest viability and plating efficiency. Our HEMn are quality tested in LIDer M Medium to ensure optimal reduced-serum growth over a period of at least 15 population doublings at rates greater than media supplemented with higher serum, PMA or Cholera toxin. Cell Features: HEM are cryopreserved after primary culture or secondary culture isolated from human skin and expanded once or twice in culture vessels before being harvested for cryopreservation. HEMn can be grown in a low serum medium without phenol red or antimicrobials when cultured in DermaLife M Medium. HEMa can be grown in a low serum medium without phenol red or antimicrobials when cultured in DermaLife Ma Medium. Culture HEM without PMA or cholera toxin or other artificial non-specific stimulants HEM are extensively tested for quality and optimal performance. AcceGen guarantees performance and quality.
