HC Basement Membrane Matrix, Phenol Red-Free

Cat. No.: BMMO-2603-CXX-006

Description: Matrigel is an organogel derived from mouse tumor tissue that mimics the native basement membrane, a stromal layer on the basal surface of animal epithelial cells. Its major protein components are laminin, collagen IV, and heparan sulfate proteoglycans. Furthermore, this basement membrane matrix is naturally embedded with multiple growth factors, such as EGF, PDGF, NGF, FGF-2, and TGF-β.

Application

Applications Designed for experiments utilizing color-based detection methods, including colorimetry and fluorescence.

Storage & Handling

Product Characteristics This product is liquid at 4°C but forms a gel when heated to 37°C. Once solidified, the Matrigel can liquefy again if returned to 4°C overnight.
Storage It is recommended that the product be aliquoted into single-use portions immediately after the first thaw and stored at -80°C for up to 2 years.
Shipping Information Shipping with dry ice.
Notes As this matrix gel solidifies when the temperature exceeds 10°C, it is essential to keep it on ice at all times during handling. To release organoids during passaging without exposing them to enzymes, gently pipette the gel using a pre-chilled basal culture medium (4°C).

For preclinical research and development use only; not intended for therapeutic or other applications.
