Product Description

Lifeline^® Normal Human Primary Epidermal Keratinocytes Adult (HEKa), when grown in Lifeline DermaLife K Keratinocyte Medium, provides an ideal serum-free culture model, for the study of wound healing, toxicology or epithelial biology.

Primary Human Adult Keratinocytes are directly cultured from their source organ tissue and have not been modified in any way. This helps ensure your experimental outcomes will be true.

Primary Keratinocytes can come from many donors, making your research outcomes more representative of the general population.

Lifeline Epidermal Keratinocytes are cryopreserved aafter primary culture to ensure the highest viability and plating efficiency.  The cells are isolated from adult human skin and expanded once in culture vessels before cryopreservation.

Our Primary Adult Epidermal Keratinocytes are quality tested in DermaLife K Medium to ensure optimal serum-free growth over a period of at least 15 population doublings at rates equal to or greater than serum-supplemented medium.

Lifeline Epidermal Keratinocytes need not be exposed to antimicrobials or phenol red when cultured in DermaLife medium, an advantage since these supplements can cause cell stress and “masking effects” that may negatively impact experimental results. can be grown without serum, phenol red or antimicrobials when cultured in DermaLife medium.

• Primary Adult Epidermal Keratinocytes can be grown without serum, phenol red or antimicrobials when cultured in DermaLife medium.
