The Gibco™ Angiogenesis Starter Kit contains the reagents and protocols necessary to perform various angiogenesis assays. Designed to address the needs of both the occasional user as well as the most experienced researcher, this combination of high quality products is easy to use and cost effective. Detailed protocols for the tube formation assay and cell migration are available below.What’s Included:Gibco™ Large Vessel Endothelial Supplement (LVES), 50X, 11 ml, ready to useGibco™ Medium 200 basal media, 500 mlGibco™ Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC), 1 vial, 5 x 105 cellsGeltrex™ LDEV-Free Reduced Growth Factor Basement Membrane Matrix, 5 mlLarge Vessel Endothelial Supplement and Medium 200Gibco™ LVES is a 50X, complete, ready-to-use media supplement optimized for use with Gibco™ Medium 200. This blended supplement has been designed to deliver optimal cell growth and to enable superior cell performance for angiogenesis applications such as cell migration and tube formation. LVES contains fetal bovine serum, hydrocortisone, human epidermal growth factor, basic fibroblast growth factor, heparin, and ascorbic acid.Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial CellsGibco™ Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells are cryopreserved at the end of the primary culture. Upon thawing, they are guaranteed to be >70% viable and capable of a minimum of 16 population doublings. Cells are derived from tissue obtained from accredited institutions with IRB-approved donor programs. Quality control of these cells includes testing for mycoplasma, sterility, endotoxin, hepatitis B and C, and HIV. Additionally, the cells are positive for von Willebrand factor (vWf), positive for CD31, negative for a-actin, and positive for dil-Ac-LDL uptake.Geltrex™ LDEV-Free MatrixGeltrex™ LDEV-Free Reduced Growth Factor Basement Membrane Matrix is a soluble, reduced growth factor, lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus-free basement membrane extract used in a wide variety of cell culture applications for promotion and maintenance of many cell types, including primary epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and stem cells. It can be diluted for use as a coating matrix for culture vessels or used undiluted as a thick gel preparation to create a more physiologically relevant environment for angiogenesis assays.
