Product Overview
BEGM® SingleQuot® Kits are components sold separately and does not include the basal medium. These are part of the BEGM® Bronchial Epithelial Cell Growth Medium BulletKit® (catalog # CC-3170) which consists of basal medium and supplements packaged together.
BEGM® Bronchial Epithelial Cell Growth Medium is specially designed to support the growth of human primary bronchial epithelial cells. BEGM® BulletKit® is serum-free and has been optimized to grow cells from normal and diseased tissues.
BEGM® is an optimized and readily available media kit providing researchers the confidence and the convenience of a system that works to support their cells. This is especially important for researchers who are utilizing cell lines as a stepping stone to primary cell culture. Working with the same BEGM® Media between cell lines and primary NHBE can reduce variability within the experiments and simplify the shift for researchers. In addition, if primary cells are utilized as a side-by-side control with normal cell lines or home-grown bronchial epithelial cells, the BEGM® BulletKit® Media may also offer cost-benefit since customers can use the same media to support multiple cell types.
Here are publications out of many where our customers have used BEGM® Growth Media with normal bronchial epithelial cells:
- El Najjar, et al. (2015). PLoSONE 10(2) demonstrates culturing of BEAS-2B bronchial epithelial cell line in BEGM® Media to examine the effects of cathepsin and furin proteolytic enzymes on viral fusion protein activation in cells
- Hagiwara, et al. (2015). Nature demonstrates BEGM® Media can ideally support co-culture of Lonza's HUVEC and NHBE in a 3D environment.
- Rider, et al. (2015). PLoS ONE 10(1) used BEGM® Media to culture primary human bronchial epithelial cells obtained from non-transplanted normal lungs
