Product news

Anachem Ltd is pleased to introduce the new Bambanker system that will save time, money and will greatly improve cell recovery rates compared to regular cell freezing media. Bambanker is a patented, unique formulation, serum-free medium that enables long-term storage of cultured cells directly at -80°C and in liquid nitrogen. The medium can be used for the freezing and preservation of valuable and sensitive tumour or non-tumour culture cells producing higher numbers of intact cells after thawing.

Bambanker is extremely easy to use requiring no dilutions or addition of other components such as DMSO or glycerol. There is no need for a programmable freezer or sequential freezing steps, saving researchers time. With a shelf life of 24 months when stored at 2 - 10°C it offers a hassle-free, cost effective option for cell storage.

A serum-free media guarantees there is no risk of contamination from unidentified ingredients, virus particles, serum proteins or mycoplasma that have the potential to interfere with cells, especially stem cells. With a pre-mixed formulation, the risk of batch-to-batch inconsistency from serum variations is eliminated.

Bambanker has been demonstrated to provide much higher recovery rates in a wide range of cell lines such as Human Gastric Epithelial Cells, Human γδT Cells, Human B Cell Line, PC12 (Rat-derived Adrenal Pheochromocytoma), Monkey B Cell Line, plus many others.

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins.

This can reveal information on cell health (apoptosis, cytotoxicity, viability and proliferation assays), cell metabolism, cell migration and cell signaling mechanisms.
