Step 1: endothelial 1

day 0 ~ 1 (duration missing in database; assumed 1 day)

culture “unspecified method” unknown species cell in “StemPro”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table.

concentrationunit
VEGF5.0e-5g/l

Step 2: endothelial 2

day 1 ~ 2 (duration missing in database; assumed 1 day)

culture “unspecified method” unknown species cell in “VascuLife VEGF Endothelial Medium”. Medium should contain factors shown in the following table.

concentrationunit
FBS10%
Glutamine0.004mol/l
heparin sulfate750U/l
FGF5.0e-6g/l
EGF5.0e-6g/l
VEGF5.0e-6g/l
IGF11.5e-5g/l
hydrocortisone hemisuccinate0.001g/l
Ascorbic Acid0.05g/l
SB4315421.0e-5mol/l

Ideally, “EC” should be obtained at the end of culture.
