StemBeads® BDNF - 1 mL

StemBeads® BDNF is a patented growth factor supplement that offers a novel way to culture cells with native Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor more efficiently, with greater control and fewer medium changes. BDNF is key for supporting neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and neuronal differentiation. StemBeads® BDNF are microbeads composed of an FDA approved, biodegradable PLGA polymer that is loaded with native, non-mutant recombinant human BDNF and release the encapsulated protein at a constant rate. Under the microscope, StemBeads® will appear as small dark spheres that do not harm the cells, and with time, will break down while releasing the encapsulated protein. Controlled delivery and stable levels overcome the 2 hour half-life (Figure below) of BDNF and improve cell cultures while saving researchers valuable time and resources.
