ReproCELL's Primate ES Cell Culture Medium is a ready to use, serum-free formulation that was jointly developed by ReproCELL and Kyoto University. This media enabled development of the world's first human iPS cells in 2007 by Prof Shinya Yamanaka and his colleagues. Following this breakthrough, ReproCELL's Primate ES Cell Culture Medium has been successfully adopted for culture of ES and iPS cells by numerous labs throughout the world. This media has been specifically developed to simplify the process of ES and iPS cell development for human and other primate cells. It does not require the addition of any additives prior to use.
