Description
GFR High Concentration Basement Membrane Matrix combines high protein density with reduced growth factor levels. This dual-feature matrix minimizes undefined background signaling while providing robust structural support. It is specifically engineered for sensitive cell culture applications, signaling pathway studies, and establishing 3D models where precise control over the biochemical environment is critical.

Precautions
1. Thaw at 4°C while packed in ice. Aliquot and refreeze. 2. Always use pre-cooled consumables. 3. Avoid direct hand contact to prevent semi-gelling. If needed, place at 0-4°C for 1-2 hours to restore liquid state. 4. Color changes due to phenol red are normal. 5. Intended for R&D use only. 6. Wear disposable gloves and a lab coat.
