Human
Melanocytes
Normal
primary adult melanocytes are a vital research tool for a variety of
applications from malignant melanoma research to pigmentation studies
as well as for cosmetics and skin biology programs. ZenBio isolates
normal human adult melanocytes and evaluates purity and function using
both Mel-5 staining (figure 1) and the conversion of L-dopa
->dopamelanin (figure 2).
These adult melanocyte cultures are available at 95% purity and are
recommended with optimized media formulated specifically to support
growth and survival in vitro.
