ImmunoCult™-XF T Cell Expansion Medium
Serum-free and xeno-free medium for the expansion of human T cells
Overview
ImmunoCult™-ACF Human B Cell Expansion Supplement is a serum-free and animal component-free supplement formulated to promote robust in vitro expansion of human peripheral blood B cells in the absence of serum, feeder cells, or specialized culture plates. The supplement contains recombinant proteins and chemically defined components that support the activation and expansion of human B cells and their maturation to plasma cells.
ImmunoCult™-ACF Human B Cell Expansion Supplement is a 50X supplement that can be added to a base medium such as ImmunoCult™-XF T Cell Expansion Medium (Catalog #10981) to prepare a complete serum-free medium for culturing and expanding human B cells.

Figure 1. Expansion and Maturation of Human B Cells with ImmunoCult™-ACF Human B Cell Expansion Supplement
B cells isolated from human PBMCs (leukapheresis packs) using EasySep™ Human Pan-B Cell Enrichment Kit were seeded at 1 x 10^5 cells/well in 24-well tissue culture plates with ImmunoCult™-ACF Human B Cell Expansion Supplement. ImmunoCult™-XF T Cell Expansion Medium was used as a base medium. The cells were passaged every 3 - 4 days. (A) Fold expansion of viable cells is shown for n = 12 donors, with bars representing the mean and 95% confidence level (range 38- to 1,190-fold at day 14 ± 1 day). (B) Expression of CD138 and CD20 was analyzed by flow cytometry at each timepoint (data represent % positive viable cells; mean ± 1 SD). The observed changes indicate maturation of B cells to plasma cells/blasts.

B cells isolated from human PBMCs (Leukopak) using EasySep™ Human Pan-B Cell Enrichment Kit were seeded at 1 x 10^5 cells/well in a 24-well tissue culture plate with ImmunoCult™-ACF Human B Cell Expansion Supplement. ImmunoCult™-XF T Cell Expansion Medium was used as a base medium. The cells were passaged on day 4 after seeding and imaged at 40x magnification on day 6.
