Microbial Culture

Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium, 100X (ITS-G) is a mixture of Insulin, transferrin, and sodium selenite that is a general supplement designed for use in classic media such as DMEM, RPMI-1640, and nutrient media such as Ham's F-12, DMEM/F-12. Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium is added to basal medium to reduce the amount of fetal calf serum required to culture cells.

L-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (2-Phospho-L-ascorbic acid) magnesium hydrate is a long-acting vitamin C derivative that can stimulate collagen formation and expression. L-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate magnesium hydrate can be used as a culture medium supplement for the osteogenic differentiation of human adipose stem cells (hASCs). L-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate magnesium hydrate increases alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and expression of runx2A in hASCs during the osteogenic differentiation.

Bovine Endothelial cell growth supplement, suitable for cell culture (ECGS, Bovine) is a culture medium supplement, endothelial cell growth supplement (ECGS), which promotes the proliferation of human saphenous vein endothelial cells (HSVEC) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC).

Yeast extract is a concentrate of the soluble components of yeast, especially Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Yeast extract is rich in nutritional components such as partially hydrolyzed proteins, free amino acids, B vitamins, and minerals. As a food ingredient, Yeast extract has both nutritional and flavoring properties. Yeast extract can also promote wound healing.

3-Indoleacetic acid, suitable for plant cell culture (IAA), is a naturally occurring plant growth hormone that is widely present in plants, bacteria, and fungi. 3-Indoleacetic acid, suitable for plant cell culture, is a plant growth-promoting hormone that not only promotes plant growth but also protects bacteria from the toxic damage to cell membrane potential caused by other indole intermediate products (such as I3P) produced during their own metabolic processes. 3-Indoleacetic acid, suitable for plant cell culture, can be used in plant cell culture.

Linoleic acid is a critical component of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Linoleic acid reduces GSH-PX and T-SOD activities. Linoleic acid functions as a structural component to maintain a certain level of membrane fluidity of the transdermal water barrier of the epidermis. Linoleic acid can cause acute oxidative damage to red blood cells, ultimately leading to partial acute anemia. Linoleic acid can be used in the research of skin diseases associated with linoleic acid deficiency.

Kimura B Rice Nutrient Solution is a complete nutrient hydroponic formula designed specifically for rice. It has a low salt content and can better simulate the low-nutrient environment native to rice.

Yoshida Rice Nutrient Solution is a hydroponic nutrient solution for rice that can be used in rice physiology, genetic breeding, and nutritional research.

Corn steep liquor, a food industrial by-product, is a nutritional additive in the liquid culture medium of fungus. Corn steep liquor can increase the production of fairy chemicals and mycelia.

Meldrum's acid (2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione) is a nucleophilic reagent. Meldrum's acid participates in Michael addition reactions. Meldrum's acid can be used in asymmetric organocatalysis.

LB Broth Base, powder (Luria-Bertani Base) is generally used to maintain the growth of E. coli. The composition of 1 liter of LB medium is: 10 g peptone, 5 g yeast extract and 10 g NaCl.

Tryptone is a peptide-rich bacterial culture medium component that can regulate bacterial cell surface proteins and biofilm-related genes. Tryptone promotes the expression and assembly of bacterial adhesion proteins (such as LapA and LapF) by providing peptide substances as structural factors, enhancing cell surface hydrophobicity and intercellular adhesion, thereby stabilizing the biofilm matrix and supporting the maturation and maintenance of bacterial biofilms. The peptide mixture contained in Tryptone can specifically regulate the transcription of bacterial adhesion-related genes (such as activating LapA and inhibiting LapF), affecting the synthesis and localization of biofilm structural proteins.

Bovine pituitary extract is a bovine pituitary extract that can be used as a mitogenic supplement in serum-free growth media. Bovine pituitary extract is rich in growth factors. Bovine pituitary extract not only promotes the proliferation of corneal keratinocytes and maintains their phenotype, but also exerts significant antioxidant stress protective effects on human prostate epithelial cells.

Boscalid is a succinate dehydrogenase (SDHI) inhibitor with antifungal activity. Boscalid binds to the ubiquinone-binding site of fungal mitochondrial complex II, blocks ATP production and aerobic respiration, exhibits good control efficacy against a variety of plant fungal diseases including gray mold, sclerotinia rot and powdery mildew, and is widely used for disease control in agriculture. Boscalid induces apoptosis, altered lipid metabolism, mitochondrial dysfunction, respiratory impairment, oxidative stress, ROS accumulation and neurodevelopmental disorders in zebrafish. Boscalid reduces foraging ability, shortens median death time and causes chronic toxicity in exposed honeybees. Boscalid also possesses genotoxicity, cytotoxicity, elevated mitochondrial superoxide levels and early-stage apoptosis.

Brain Heart Infusion Broth (BHI) is a bacterial culture medium that can be used for microbial culture.

Sodium metavanadate, 99% (Sodium vanadate (V), 99%) is an orally active phosphate structural analog and protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPases) inhibitor. Sodium metavanadate, 99% mimics phosphate to interfere with phosphoprotein reactions, inhibits GAPDH, Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase and microbial membrane ATPase, and acts as a terminal electron acceptor for anaerobic respiration. Sodium metavanadate, 99% induces ROS production, G2/M phase arrest, mitochondrial membrane potential loss and apoptosis in breast cancer cells, and reduces tumor volume in tumor-bearing mice. Sodium metavanadate, 99% also exhibits oral insulin-sensitizing and metabolic regulatory activities, and reduces plasmodium parasitemia levels. Sodium metavanadate, 99% can be used in studies related to cadmium exposure-induced metabolic syndrome, plasmodium infection, breast cancer and type 1 diabetes.

Ferric citrate hydrate, an orally active iron supplement, is an efficacious phosphate binder. Ferric citrate hydrate can be used for iron deficiency anemia and chronic kidney disease (CKD) research.

Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium-Ethanolamine (ITS-X) is a cell culture supplement as well as a cell growth and adhesion promoter. Insulin-Transferrin-Selenium-Ethanolamine supports adhesion, pseudopodium formation, pseudopodium elongation and proliferation of adherent cancer cells in serum-free culture systems.

Silver nitrite is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula AgNO₂. Silver nitrite can inhibit cell division and bacterial growth by interfering with protein synthesis.

Tryptone Soya Broth can be used for MPN determination of Staphylococcus aureus. Tryptone Soya Broth ingredients include tryptone, soy peptone, sodium chloride, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, and glucose.
