Corning® Matrigel® Basement Membrane Matrix, Phenol Red-Free, *LDEV-Free, 10mL (Product #356237)

Corning® Matrigel® Matrix Phenol Red-Free, LDEV-Free, 10mL, is recommended for assays that require color detection (e.g. fluorescence). Corning Matrigel matrix is a solubilized basement membrane preparation extracted from the Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) mouse sarcoma, a tumor rich in extracellular matrix proteins, including Laminin (a major component), Collagen IV, heparin sulfate proteoglycans, entactin/nidogen, ａnd a number of growth factors.

Quality
• Mouse colonies routinely screened for pathogens via Mouse Antibody Production (MAP) testing
• Extensive PCR testing is performed to screen for a number of pathogens• Tested ａnd found negative for bacteria, fungi, ａnd mycoplasma
