{"product_id":"media-city-scientific-gecko","title":"Media City Scientific GECKO™ Adherence Solution","description":"\u003cp\u003eGECKO is a chemically defined, animal-component-free (ACF) adherence solution designed to facilitate robust cell attachment in serum-free and chemically defined environments. It addresses the common challenge of poor cell adhesion on standard tissue culture plastic when removing serum, ensuring that anchorage-dependent cells maintain morphology and proliferation rates without the need for undefined biological matrices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormulated as a precise mix of solubilised adherence proteins found in Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS), GECKO replicates the natural attachment factors typically lost when transitioning to serum-free media. Unlike complex extracellular matrices (ECMs) that can introduce variability, GECKO provides a consistent, defined surface treatment that minimizes background noise in assays and downstream analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coating is essential for researchers using FRS Pioneer or other serum-free formulations with adherent cell lines that struggle to attach to standard vessel surfaces. It enables the use of standard, cost-effective tissue culture plasticware rather than requiring expensive pre-coated vessels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSupplied as a sterile liquid, GECKO is designed for coating culture vessels prior to cell seeding. It creates a stable, bioactive interface that supports cell spreading and monolayer formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for research and development applications where animal-derived contaminants must be eliminated. It is compatible with a wide range of adherent cell types used in cultivated meat research and bioprocess development.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Media City Scientific","offers":[{"title":"1.25 mg","offer_id":54080803373384,"sku":"GECKO0100","price":187.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0906\/7570\/8232\/files\/Screenshot_2026-09-03_at_5.10.50_PM_35207ad9-5f25-4d11-b97c-18c0485707b2.png?v=1788435685","url":"https:\/\/cellbase.com\/products\/media-city-scientific-gecko","provider":"Cellbase","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
