Yes, there are a few differences:
– We recommend replacing the MSC Growth Medium XF (C-28019) 3-4 h after seeding, as opposed to 16-24 hours after seeding for most other cell types/growth media, including MSC Growth Medium 2.
– When MSC Growth Medium XF, MSC Neurogenic Differentiation Medium, MSC Adipogenic Differentiation Medium 2 or MSC Osteogenic Differentiation Medium are used, flasks have to be coated with 10 µg/cm² (human or bovine) fibronectin according to the instruction manual.
– We strongly recommend using Accutase (C-41310) for cell detachment instead of Trypsin. If Trypsin is used, contact time should not exceed 2 min.
