NDiff N2 cell-culture supplements

NDiff N2 medium is a proprietary, completely defined, serum-free cell-culture supplement for the derivation, maintenance, expansion, and/or differentiation of human and mouse stem cells and tissue-derived neural stem (NS) cells. Both traditional and animal-free (AF) versions are available. NDiff N2 and NDiff N2-AF media contain insulin, APO-transferrin (iron poor), progesterone, putrescine, and sodium selenite. NDiff N2 medium can be used with RHB-Basal medium; this medium is animal component-free and does not contain neuronal supplements, allowing medium customization to meet the specific requirements of your cells.

NDiff N2 is a defined, serum-free cell culture supplement. Based on Bottenstein's formulation, NDiff N2 was originally developed and optimized for the in vitro monolayer differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells into neurons. The product has subsequently been used to derive, expand and maintain mouse and human NS cells as well as mouse ES cells under serum- and feeder-free culture conditions. NDiff N2 containd insulin, APO-transferrin (iron poor), progesterone, putrescine and sodium selenite. For an animal free alternative, see NDiff N2-AF.
