Gain reliability and consistency with hESC/iPSC-qualified and organoid-qualified Geltrex Flex matrix

For culturing hESCs or iPSCs, it is recommended to use Geltrex Flex LDEV-Free hESC-Qualified Reduced Growth Factor Basement Membrane Matrix. hESC-qualified Geltrex Flex matrix provides all the benefits of standard Geltrex Flex matrix, with added quality controls for each lot. Each lot is tested with iPSCs and H9 hESCs for at least five passages to help ensure reliability and consistency in hESC/iPSC studies.

For culturing tumoroids and other organoids, Geltrex Flex LDEV-Free Organoid-Qualified Reduced Growth Factor Basement Membrane Matrix is recommended. Organoid-qualified Geltrex Flex matrix provides all the benefits of standard Geltrex Flex matrix, with added quality controls for each lot. Each lot is tested and supports culture of mouse intestinal organoids, mouse liver ductal organoids, and mouse airway organoids, as well as expansion of mouse small intestinal organoids for more than five passages with typical organoid budding morphology.
