Culture Medium (Nanobacteria Control)

All abm medium products are now shipped with NanOut to protect your valuable cells from nanobacteria contamination.

Nanobacteria: A New Frontier in Microbiology

Nanobacteria are ultra-small, sub-microscopic entities that have been proposed as a novel type of microorganism. Although their classification and existence have been subjects of scientific debate, recent research conducted in our lab strongly supports the hypothesis that nanobacteria are indeed a distinct form of life. Our findings demonstrate that nanobacteria not only replicate and grow in cell culture environments but can also be effectively controlled using our NanOut agent.

Adverse Effects of Nanobacteria Contamination

Nanobacteria contamination significantly disrupts normal cellular processes, leading to:

  • Impact on Cell Growth: Nanobacteria inhibit or disrupt cell proliferation, causing inconsistent growth patterns and unreliable results.
  • Changes in Cell Physiology: Contaminated cells exhibit altered gene expression, metabolic imbalances, and abnormal protein production, distorting experimental data.
  • Misleading Experimental Results: Due to their sub-microscopic nature, nanobacteria can go undetected for extended periods, resulting in flawed data and inaccurate conclusions.

Introducing NanOut: A Breakthrough Solution

To address these challenges, scientists at abm have worked diligently to develop an effective agent to control nanobacteria contamination. The result of these efforts is NanOut, our first-generation nanobacteria control drug.

Key benefits of NanOut include:

  • Proven effectiveness across all tested cell lines.
  • Prevents future nanobacteria contamination.
  • Incorporated into all abm media products to ensure ongoing protection.
  • Minimal impact on host cells, as validated by Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) assays.

With NanOut, researchers can now achieve more accurate, reliable experimental results while safeguarding their cell cultures from the harmful effects of nanobacteria.
