Yocon is committed to produce high-quality and brand serum-free cell culture products, laying a solid foundation for cell culture media solutions.

iPSC Cell Serum-Free Medium Kit (rHSA)

This product is designed for stable expansion and long-term maintenance of human iPSCs. It adopts a 100% recombinant-protein formula with no animal-derived or human-derived components, delivering consistent batches and reliable safety. Featuring high expansion efficiency and sustained pluripotency, the ready-to-use 3D suspension formulation requires no additional protein supplementation, significantly lowering CMC compliance barriers and accelerating clinical translation of cell therapy.

Eliminate Risks of Exogenous Contamination


100% recombinant proteins, no animal-derived or human-derived materials.Eliminates contamination risks from prions, hepatitis viruses, HIV and other pathogens.


Ensure Batch-to-Batch Consistency


Recombinant protein manufacturing ensures constant composition across batches, avoids lot variation from blood-derived raw materials, and guarantees process reproducibility.


Accelerate Regulatory Filing


Well-defined chemical components with clear traceability reduce difficulties in CMC review and shorten timelines for IND/BLA submissions.

Product Advantages


  • High-efficiency expansion: 21–30-fold expansion within 4 days for 2D culture; 6.6–10.25-fold expansion within 3 days after stabilized serial passaging in 3D culture. Proliferation performance outperforms comparable imported products and greatly shortens production cycles.


  • Sustained pluripotency: After long-term passaging, positive rates of TRA-1-60 and OCT4 remain ≥ 98%, and SSEA4 reaches 100%. Cells show typical morphology with no differentiation observed, ensuring stable downstream workflows.


  • Suspension compatible: Ready-to-use 3D suspension formulation. No extra recombinant protein supplement required. Simplifies workflows, reduces contamination risks, readily adapts to large-scale industrial culture and supports mass production translation.


Performance Data

2D (Monolayer) Culture

  1. Cell Morphology

Cells exhibit typical iPSC colony morphology with sharp colony edges, high nucleus-to-cytoplasm ratio and no signs of differentiation.

2. Cell Proliferation Capacity

Within a 96-hour growth period, the fold expansion of serial passaging (P1-P10) is stably maintained between 21 and 30 folds.

3. Stemness and Pluripotency Maintenance


Under 2D culture conditions, P5 cells show a TRA-1-60 positive rate of 98.08%, SSEA4 positive rate of 100%, and OCT4 positive rate of 99.8%.

For P10 cells, the positive rates of stemness markers are: TRA-1-60 at 94.3%, SSEA4 at 99.97%, OCT4 at 99.61%, and SOX2 at 99.83%.
