Our fibroblast medium is based on EMEM (Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium) and has been optimized for the in vitro cultivation of human fibroblasts. The medium is characterized by an increased content of selected amino acids and vitamins. As our fibroblast medium does not contain any proteins, growth factors or lipids, we recommend supplementing it with 10 % fetal calf serum (FBS) for fibroblast cultivation.

Good to know
Fibroblasts are motile cells of the connective tissue that transform into non-motile fibrocytes after maturation. Fibroblasts have an important function in the synthesis of the extracellular matrix, or intercellular substance. Fibroblasts mainly form collagen fibers and proteoglycans, which give the extracellular matrix stability. In addition to the formation of connective tissue, fibroblasts are primarily involved in wound healing and inflammatory processes. They play a role in diseases such as rheumatism or Dupuytren's disease.
