Description
- The major components of Geltrex™ matrix include laminin, collagen IV, entactin, and heparin sulfate proteoglycans
- It is ideal for the promotion and maintenance of differentiated phenotypes in a variety of cell cultures including primary epithelial cells, endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC)
- Geltrex™ matrix offers, on average, a 2-fold reduction in several growth factors
- As a result, analysis of specific growth factor effects in applications requiring basement membrane extract can be carried out in a controlled and reproducible format
- Minimal protein concentration variation from lot-to-lot (∼15 mg/mL)
