Product Description

Gibco CTS OpTmizer T Cell Expansion Serum Free Medium, bag format, Model Numbers A1048503 and A1022103. Tissue and cell culture medium.

Reason for Recall

Distribution Pattern

Worldwide distribution. US states: CA, CO, CT, FL, GA, MA, MD, PA, RI, UT, and WA., Canada, France, Great Britain, Japan, Korea, Netherlands, and Switzerland.
