Thermo Fisher, A1383504, FreeStyle™ F17 Expression Medium

20 L Gibco FreeStyle F17 Expression Medium is a chemically defined, protein-free, serum-free medium developed to support the growth and transfection of HEK293 cells in suspension. The addition of 4–8 mM L-glutamine or GlutaMAX supplement is required before use.
Features:
• Little or no required adaptation
• Supports suspension growth and transfection of HEK293 cells
• Chemically defined, protein-free, serum-free formulation
• Compatible with multiple transient production systems
• Scalability in spinner flasks and bioreactorsLittle or no required adaptation293-F, 293-H, and FreeStyle 293-F cells in suspension can be cultured directly into FreeStyle F17 Expression Medium without adaptation. Cells adapted to other commercially available serum-free media can be subcultured directly into FreeStyle F17 medium, usually without any further adaptation. Cells usually require adaptation from serum-containing formulations.
Growth and transfection of HEK293 cellsFreeStyle F17 Expression Medium supports 293-F cells at a peak density of 6–7 x 106viable cells per mL. Cells cultured in FreeStyle F17 medium can be transfected using a wide variety of transfection reagents, including lipid-based transfection reagents, such as293fectinandFreestyle MAX Reagent.
Scalability in spinner flasks and bioreactorsProduction using FreeStyle F17 Expression Medium can be scaled up in spinner flasks or bioreactors. The appropriate spinner or impeller speed and seeding density should be optimized for each system. Depending on the impeller design and speed, it may be necessary to supplement FreeStyle F17 medium with additional Pluronic F-68 to avoid sheer stress in the culture.
cGMP manufacturing and quality systemFreeStyle F17 Expression Medium is manufactured at a cGMP-compliant facility located in Grand Island, New York. The facility is registered with the FDA as a medical device manufacturer and is certified to ISO 13485 standards.
