Description

Gibco CultureCEPT Supplement reduces cellular stress and improves viability of stem cells, differentiated cells, and primary cells during a wide variety of handling and processing steps where cell damage and death can limit the success of a cell culture workflow. It is a unique formulation that provides superior cell protection compared to traditional ROCK inhibitors, such as Y-27632, and other commercially available cell culture reagents.

The formulation is based on advancements from the Stem Cell Translation Laboratory at the NIH's National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS), where a screen of over 15,000 compounds identified a combination of small molecules (referred to as CEPT) that work together to provide unmatched cytoprotection in passaging pluripotent stem cells, embryoid body creation, organoid formation, single-cell cloning, gene-editing, differentiation, and recovery of cryopreserved cells including PSCs, cardiomyocytes, neurons, astrocytes, and hepatocytes. CultureCEPT Supplement contains the CEPT cocktail molecules, chroman 1, emricasan, polyamines, and trans-ISRIB, to provide improved cell viability.

Achieve unparalleled cell survival in numerous applications
CultureCEPT Supplement will benefit scientists looking for:
• Improved viability of PSCs, differentiated cells, or primary cells following recovery from cryopreservation
• Improved viability during the passaging of stem cells
• Improved viability during electroporation or transfection
• Improved clonal efficiency during gene-editing and clonal selection with PSCs
• Improved embryoid body and organoid formation

CultureCEPT Supplement harnesses the power of CEPT
• Innovative small molecules comprising the CEPT cocktail have been extensively tested by the NIH's NCATS (Chen et al., 2021)
• Growing number of publications highlights utility and exceptional performance of CEPT small molecules

Compatible with trusted Gibco media systems
• Evaluated in StemScale PSC Suspension Medium, StemFlex Medium, Essential 8 Medium, Essential 8 Flex Medium, Neurobasal Medium, and Neurobasal Plus Medium
• For over 60 years Gibco reagents have enabled successful cell culture

Ready-to-use
• Fully formulated 1000X
• Simply add directly to media
• No weighing, no resuspending, no displacing media, no hassle
