Application data

Four donor-derived human PBMCs were cultured with NK Cell Expansion Medium for two weeks. The results of the cell expansion showed that NK Cell Expansion Kit (ACROBiosystems) can be comparable with the Competitor NK medium. Notably, the total cells exhibit better expansion in NK Cell Expansion Kit (ACROBiosystems). Image Credit: ACROBiosystems

Four donor-derived human PBMCs were cultured with NK Cell Expansion Medium for two weeks. The NK proportional results showed that the NK Cell Expansion Kit (ACROBiosystems) can be comparable with the Competitor 2 and higher than that of Competitor 1. Image Credit: ACROBiosystems

Four donor-derived human PBMCs were cultured with NK Cell Expansion Medium for two weeks. The results of the TIGIT ratio, a marker of exhaustion, showed that the NK Cell Expansion Kit (ACROBiosystems) can be comparable with Competitor 2 and lower than that of Competitor 1.
