RocketCell™ Organoid Xeno-Free Essential-Core Medium
The complete xen-free foundation for organoid culture – just add growth factors.
The RocketCell™ Organoid Xeno-Free Essential-Core Medium provides a complete foundation for organoid culture, including essential supplements for organoid development. This advanced essential core medium can replace the separate addition of supplements such as N2 and B27 in organoid culture medium. Depending on the organoid type, RocketCell™ Organoid Xeno-Free Essential-Core Medium should be supplemented with growth factors for optimum growth. This is a 100% Xeno-free environment (animal origin-free).
The RocketCell™ Organoid Xeno-Free Essential-Core Medium is optimized and includes essential supplements and other small molecules (excluding growth factors) that provide the nutritional support necessary for long-term organoid growth. RocketCell™ Organoid Xeno-Free Essential-Core Medium Kit is recommended for organoid development in both synthetic and animal-based hydrogels.

iPSC-derived intestinal organoids cultured and stained in VitroPrime™ 3D Culture and Imaging Plate.
The entire xeno-free workflow—from cell culture to imaging—was performed directly on the VitroPrime™ 3D Culture and Imaging Plate, without removing cells or organoids from the wells. iPSCs were initially cultured in VitroGel® STEM to form spheroids and subsequently differentiated into intestinal organoids using CytoGrow™ growth factors. RocketCell™ Organoid Xeno-Free Essential-Core Medium was used to ensure optimal organoid growth. Matured intestinal organoid was fixed, stained, and imaged using a Leica Mica confocal microscope.
