PneumaCult™-ALI Medium (Catalog #05001) is a serum- and BPE-free medium for the culture of human airway epithelial cells at the air-liquid interface (ALI)
Airway epithelial cells cultured in PneumaCult™-ALI Medium undergo extensive mucociliary differentiation to form a pseudostratified epithelium that exhibits morphological and functional characteristics similar to those of the human airway in vivo
PneumaCult™-ALI Medium is also available in a kit that includes 12 mm Transwell™ inserts (Catalog #05021) or 6.5 mm Transwell™ inserts (Catalog #05022)
Together, PneumaCult™-ALI Medium and PneumaCult™-Ex Plus Medium (Catalog #05040) constitute a fully integrated BPE-free culture system for in vitro human airway modeling
This robust and defined system is a valuable tool for basic respiratory research, toxicity studies, and drug development
