Panexin CD
Chemically Defined Serum Substitute
Fully chemically defined, animal- and human-component-free serum replacement
RUO (P04-93100) · GMP grade on request (CT-93100)
Panexin CD is a fully chemically defined serum substitute free of animal or human components, suitable for both adherent and suspension cell cultures. It has been shown to support the growth of various cell lines, including HeLa, L929, HEK 293, Vero, and lymphocytes, making it ideal for sensitive and regulatory-driven applications. Its optimized formulation contains recombinant proteins (<0.1 % w/v), lipids, salts, amino acids, trace elements, hormones, and a 3-dimensional substrate release system, while excluding growth factors.
Panexin — the world’s first serum replacement, now in GMP. PAN-Biotech introduced Panexin in 1992. Panexin CD is available for research use (P04-93100) and in GMP quality (CT-93100) – a real differentiator for regulatory-driven, animal-component-free bioprocessing.
Why Panexin CD
- Fully chemically defined – free of animal and human components for maximum consistency.
