PromoCell Mononuclear Cells (MNC) represent the lymphocyte and monocyte fraction isolated from umbilical cord blood or peripheral blood. They are prepared by optimized low-density gradient centrifugation, which effectively reduces the granulocyte content. Red blood cells are gently but thoroughly depleted by proprietary techniques instead of osmotic lysis. This results in ultra-pure mononuclear cells with superior viability and unchanged biological function. In addition, the cells do not clump after thawing, allowing for easy handling and reproducible results.

Calcium chloride solution allows the adjustment of the optimal amount of calcium required by the cells. Calcium chloride (CaCl₂) solution is prepared as a solution from highly pure tissue culture tested calcium chloride and cell culture-grade water.

Primary Human White Preadipocytes (HWP) are isolated from adult subcutaneous or visceral adipose tissue from different locations (lot specific source information is available on request). Adipose tissue is crucial in energy storage and metabolic homeostasis. An increase in adipose tissue results either from an enlargement of mature adipocytes or from the differentiation of adipocyte precursor cells (preadipocytes) into new mature adipocytes. These preadipocytes are already present in adipose tissues. They can proliferate throughout adult life and replace the cells that have differentiated into mature adipocytes.

Primary Human Umbilical Artery Smooth Muscle Cells (HUASMC) are isolated from the arteries of the umbilical cord and stain positive for smooth muscle α-actin

Supplier: Promocell

Primary Human Pulmonary Fibroblasts (HPF) are isolated from human lung tissue

Supplier: Promocell

Primary Human Dermal Blood Endothelial Cells (HDBEC) are a subpopulation of the Human Dermal Endothelial Cells. They are isolated from the dermis of juvenile foreskin and adult skin (different locations) from a single donor. (Human Dermal Lymphatic Endothelial Cells (HDLEC) from the same donor are available on request.) The cells are routinely analyzed by flow cytometric analysis and immunofluorescent staining: they are > 95% CD31 positive and stain positive for von Willebrand factor. In addition, they are > 90% negative for podoplanin and stain negative for smooth muscle specific alpha-actin.

PromoCell Keratinocyte Growth Medium 2 is a serum-free medium developed for the cultivation of epidermal keratinocytes without feeder cells

Supplier: Promocell

Primary Normal Human Epidermal Melanocytes (NHEM) are isolated from the epidermis of juvenile foreskin or adult skin from different locations including the face, the breasts, the abdomen, and the thighs. They are located in the stratum basale, but branch out between the keratinocytes in suprabasal layers. About 5-10 % of the cells in the epidermis are melanocytes. The main purpose of melanocytes is the production of melanin, the protein responsible for the pigmentation of the skin, eyes, and hair. Melanin protects the cells in the skin and in deeper layers from the hazardous effects of UV radiation.

Primary Human Osteoblasts (HOB) are isolated from femoral trabecular bone tissue from the knee or hip joint region (lot specific source information is available on request). They stain positive for alkaline phosphatase and can be mineralized using PromoCell Mineralization Medium.
