Description
Maintaining long-term viability and pluripotent characteristics after cryopreservation remains a critical challenge in human pluripotent stem cell workflows. During freezing and recovery processes, iPSC and ESC cultures may experience reduced survival, cellular stress, delayed recovery, or changes in colony morphology, which can affect downstream stem cell research applications.
XR PluriCryo is a protein-free cryopreservation medium specifically developed for human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs). The formulation provides cryoprotective components and pluripotent stem cell-supporting nutrients designed to reduce freezing and thawing stress while supporting recovery after cryopreservation.
Unlike conventional freezing solutions containing serum or animal-derived components, XR PluriCryo provides an animal component-free and protein-free environment for pluripotent stem cell preservation. This defined formulation helps researchers establish more consistent hPSC cryopreservation workflows for stem cell banking, iPSC storage, and routine laboratory maintenance.
XR PluriCryo supports both single-cell cryopreservation and clump-based cryopreservation approaches, providing flexibility for different human pluripotent stem cell culture workflows.
