MORE DETAILS:

Defined Bioscience’s HiDef-B8 is a complete, serum-free, defined formulation designed for the feeder-free maintenance and expansion of human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) in an undifferentiated state. The HiDef-B8 medium is a unique formulation that offers the modern conveniences of a flexible feeding schedule (including weekend-free maintenance) and the ability to choose the matrices and passaging methods that best suit specific applications. HiDef-B8 contains insulin, ascorbic acid-2-phosphate, transferrin, sodium selenite, TGFB3, NRG1, and thermostable FGF2/bFGF. The addition of further components is not required.

Defined Bioscience recommends the use of our DMEM/F12 (catalog # LSB-101) when preparing HiDef-B8 complete medium, as its composition is optimized specifically for HiDef-B8 use. HiDef-B8 400X Supplement compatibility has also been verified with several manufacturers’ formulations of DMEM/F12, maintaining human pluripotent stem cells on matrices from several manufacturers at coating concentrations as low as 2.4 µg per sq-cm (e.g. ~1:800 dilution of 18 mg/mL stock matrix at 1 mL per well in 6-well TC-treated plates), in addition to defined substrates.

HiDef-B8 Stem Cell Growth Medium - Defined Bioscience

HiDef-B8 400X Supplement - Defined Bioscience

Highly optimized stem cell medium for weekend-free cell maintenance

Defined Bioscience’s HiDef-B8 is a complete, serum-free, defined formulation designed for the feeder-free maintenance and expansion of human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) in an undifferentiated state. The HiDef-B8 medium is a unique formulation that offers the modern conveniences of a flexible feeding schedule (including weekend-free maintenance) and the ability to choose the matrices and passaging methods that best suit specific applications.

HiDef-B8 is provided in two formats to offer flexibility for use:

The HiDef-B8 complete medium kit, including the 400X Supplement vial and our DMEM/F12 basal medium;
The HiDef-B8 400X Supplement only (basal medium NOT included), for the modern convenience of basal medium choice.

HiDef-B8 contains insulin, ascorbic acid-2-phosphate, transferrin, sodium selenite, TGFB3, NRG1, and thermostable FGF2/bFGF. The addition of further components is not required.

QUALIFICATION OF HIDEF-B8

The gold-standard demonstration of the suitability of a hiPSC medium is the capacity to generate hiPSC lines and maintain them in long-term culture. Our standard hiPSC line 19c3 has been cultured for >100 passages (p) in HiDEF-B8 and maintained expression of markers of undifferentiated status (SSEA4 and TRA-1-60) by flow cytometry (p131 at time of assay). We also generated hiPSC lines from 37 patients using established protocols but using B8. These hiPSC lines maintained SSEA4 and TRA-1-60 expression in culture (up to p65 at time of assay). In B8 hiPSCs maintained an hESC-like morphology; positive immunofluorescent staining for SSEA4, POU5F1, SOX2, and TRA-1-60; and normal karyotype.
