Insect Cell Culture Media

Insect Cell Culture Media

Browse through our catalog of insect cell culture media designed to support the growth, proliferation, and maintenance of various insect cell lines. These specialized media formulations cater to the unique nutritional requirements of insect cells, particularly those derived from Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9 and Sf21) and Drosophila species. Our selection includes serum-free, protein-free, and animal origin-free options, as well as supplemented and unsupplemented formulations.Insect cell culture media are available in both liquid and powder forms, offering flexibility for different laboratory needs. These media are optimized for use in baculovirus expression vector systems (BEVS) and stable insect expression systems, making them ideal for recombinant protein production. Some formulations are specifically tailored for large-scale protein expression, while others are designed for routine cell maintenance and growth.Our range encompasses various types of insect cell culture media, such as Sf-900 II SFM, Sf-900 III SFM, Grace's Insect Medium, Express Five SFM, Schneider's Drosophila Medium, IPL-41 Insect Medium, and TC-100 Insect Medium. These media may contain additives like L-glutamine, sodium bicarbonate, and yeastolate, or be available without certain components like phenol red or insect hemolymph, allowing researchers to choose the most suitable formulation for their specific applications.
