The best and proving it every day

Defined Supplements

Much success has been achieved using plant-derived, animal free protein hydrolysates in combination with other cell culture supplements such as insulin, transferrin and other growth factors, such as albumin, normally derived from FBS or other animal sources. To further meet the challenging needs of the market by enhancing performance and consistency, Sheffield Bio-Science offers high quality and cost effective recombinant supplements for the supplementation of cell culture media: Sheffield r Insulin CC, Sheffield rAlbumin (ACF) Animal Component Free, and Sheffield rAprotinin (ACF) Animal Component Free.
