Our MSC Growth Medium XF (Ready-to-use) provides a xeno-free culture system for human MSCs. It contains all growth factors and supplements except attachment- and spreading factors. Therefore; culture vessels must be precoated with 10 μg/ml human or bovine fibronectin.
Protocol: Fibronectin coating
Dilute the Fibronection Solution to 10 μg/ml final concentration in Dulbecco´s PBS w/o Calcium and Magnesium. Overlay the culture surface of your tissue culture vessel with an amount of the diluted Fibronectin Solution sufficient to effectively coat the complete surface. Be sure that the entire surface is covered. Place flasks on a level surface at RT for 60 min. Aspirate the excess Fibronectin Solution and use immediately or let air-dry the open vessel under a laminar flow bench. Unused vessels may be stored at 4°C for up to 2 weeks.
