Can the addition of FBS to MSC Growth Medium XF replace fibronectin coating?
In many cases, the addition of 0.5-2% FBS to MSC Growth Medium XF may provide sufficient cell attachment to make fibronectin coating unnecessary.
However, the optimal conditions may vary depending on the cell type, donor, and application. We therefore recommend validating cell attachment and growth under your specific culture conditions.
Please note: A key advantage of MSC Growth Medium XF is that it is serum-free and xeno-free. Adding FBS removes these benefits and should therefore only be considered if serum-free culture conditions are not required for the intended application.
