Cytopore1 macroporous microcarriers are principally designed for use in suspension culture systems for growth of adherent recombinant Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells and the production of recombinant proteins.

• Macroporous structure of Cytopore microcarriers encourages cell growth into the bead, while the micropores provide maximum nutrient availability
• The characteristics enable growth of cells which require high recirculation rates and high nutrient-availability
• Optimized for growth of r-CHO in stirred tank cultures but is applicable to cell lines requiring similar surface charge
• Transparent for easy microscopic examination of attached cells
