IntestiCult Organoid Growth Medium (Mouse)

IntestiCult Organoid Growth Medium (Mouse)

IntestiCult™ Organoid Growth Medium (Mouse) is a defined, serum-free cell culture medium for efficient establishment and long-term maintenance of mouse intestinal organoids.These organoids, or “mini-guts”, provide a convenient in vitro organotypic culture system for studying both the small and large intestinal epithelium and associated stem cell dynamics. Organoids grown in IntestiCult™ feature a polarized epithelium that contains all of the known cell types of the adult intestinal epithelium. Individual intestinal crypts rapidly form organoids when cultured in IntestiCult™ Organoid Growth Medium (Mouse). Applications of these cultures include studying the development and function of the normal and tumorigenic intestinal epithelium, modeling intestinal disease, and investigating stem cell properties and regenerative therapy approaches. Organoid culture enables convenient in vitro characterization of a system with strong physiological relevance to the adult intestine.
