Is it possible to perform experimental starvation with PromoCell Normal Human Cells and the PromoCell media?
Description
Yes but the experimental starvation conditions have to be determined individually for each cell type. Usually the cells are maintained in basal medium with reduced growth factor concentrations or lower FBS content. The cells need to be in a good condition and the starvation should be kept as short as possible as prolonged serum and/or growth factor deprivation induces apoptosis.
