Many of our Gibco CTS reagents are now offered in a BioProcess Container format suitable for a closed system workflow to help you close and scale your process, reducing the risk of contamination or human error and increasing your manufacturing efficiency. This can help boost the likelihood of clinical and commercial manufacturing success while also reducing the need for costly Class A clean room use.
Learn moreCTS LV-MAX Lentiviral Production System
A complete, optimized serum-free system designed to support high-titer lentiviral production in a variety of suspension culture vessels, enabling you to scale up or down based on your needs. This cost-effective and scalable lentiviral manufacturing platform can support high throughput early in discovery or seamless clinical scale-up, all while maintaining high yield.
Learn moreCTS AIM V Medium
Gibco CTS AIM V SFM is the first commercially available, defined, serum-free medium (SFM) for the proliferation and/or manipulation of T cells and dendritic cells manufactured in compliance with cGMP.
Learn moreCTS Dynabeads CD3/CD28
Gibco CTS Dynabeads magnetic beads are a trusted technology for the isolation, activation, and expansion of T cells ex vivo. Dynabeads CD3/CD28 can be used for the isolation, activation, and/or expansion of polyclonal T cells, antigen-specific T cells, gene-modified T cells, and other T cell subtypes and will deliver 100- to 1,000-fold expansion in 9–14 days.
Learn moreCTS OpTmizer Pro SFM
Gibco CTS OpTmizer Pro SFM is the first medium developed for the growth and expansion of human T lymphocytes (e.g., CD4+, CD8+, polyclonal, or antigen-specific T cells) used in allogeneic cell therapies. This serum-free and xeno-free medium improves central memory phenotype and cell growth, resulting a larger population of central memory cells in a shorter period of time.
