General description
A general-purpose microcarrier for most established, anchorage-dependent cell lines.
High yield culture of anchorage-dependent cells: Microcarrier culture is a technique which makes possible the practical high yield culture of anchorage-dependent cells. Cytodex has been specifically developed for the culture of a wide range of animal cells in culture volumes ranging from a few mL to more than 6000 L. Using Cytodex in simple suspension culture systems provides yields of several million cells per mL.
Suitable for most established cell lines: Formed by substituting a cross-linked dextran matrix with positively charged DEAE* groups distributed throughout the matrix, is a general purpose microcarrier. It is particularly suitable for most established cell lines and for production of viruses or cell products from cultures of primary cells and normal diploid cell strains.
