In a presentation of scientific studies with InVitria's Cellastim and Lacromin, Steve Pettit, Director of InVitria's Cell Culture Group, noted, "The growth and productivity results in CHO cell lines are quite impressive and not achievable with other sources of albumin or transferrin supplements. Cellastim has shown growth and productivity up to 50% better than the next best alternative. Similar impressive results with the use of Lacromin have previously been published by our team(1)," said Pettit.
"We continue to show powerful results of Cellastim and Lacromin in cell culture media for a variety of cell lines including CHO, Hybridoma, Vero and NS0 cells. Since these are well defined supplements, they help our customers achieve both their regulatory and manufacturing goals. These are the only supplements available that not only improve cell culture performance, but do this while maintaining a defined and animal free media," said Scott Deeter, InVitria's President.
