FluxMPS™ Click's Medium (EHAA) Eagle Hanks' Amino Acids w/o L-Glutamine, Mercaptoethanol, 1X Liquid Cell Culture
FluxMPS™ Click's Medium (EHAA) Eagle Hanks' Amino Acids w/o L-Glutamine, Mercaptoethanol, 1X Liquid Cell Culture
FluxMPS™ Click's Medium (EHAA) Eagle Hanks' Amino Acids w/o L-Glutamine, Mercaptoethanol, 1X Liquid Cell Culture is an MPS-grade, ultra-filtered cell culture medium engineered for organ-on-a-chip (OoC), tissue-on-a-chip (ToC), and microphysiological system (MPS) applications. Processed through a proprietary Quadruple-stage filtration system (0.1 µm ×2 + 0.04 µm ×2), it delivers approximately 5× cleaner media than conventional 0.22 µm-filtered formulations by particulate count — making it microchannel-safe from day one.

Engineered where standard media fails
Conventional 0.22 µm-filtered media carry mycoplasma-sized particulates (0.1–0.3 µm), subvisible debris, and endotoxin spikes that accumulate inside microchannels — corrupting biosensor readings, triggering inflammation in primary cultures, and shortening device lifetimes. FluxMPS™ eliminates these failure modes at the source.
Microchannel-safe purity
0.04 µm final filter stage retains particles down to sub-mycoplasma size; USP <788> particulate compliance verified per lot.
Total metabolic control
User-defined carbon source, Warburg-ready glucose-free options, and precise nutrient concentrations for metabolic flux experiments.
Ultrapure-grade water
Prepared with Type 1 water (18.2 MΩ·cm), meeting USP <85> conductivity standards and minimizing ionic background noise.
Low background for imaging
Ultra-clean formulation delivers minimal autofluorescence — ideal for confocal microscopy, live-cell biosensors, and TEER measurements.
Rich, stable nutrient profile
Micro-batch precision manufacturing locks in amino acid and vitamin concentrations, ensuring lot-to-lot reproducibility critical for long-term perfusion studies.
Customization on demand

Quadruple-stage filtration system
FluxMPS™ Click's Medium (EHAA) Eagle Hanks' Amino Acids w/o L-Glutamine, Mercaptoethanol, 1X Liquid Cell Culture is the only ready-to-use formulation processed through a four-stage serial filtration sequence that reaches 0.04 µm — eliminating mycoplasma, subvisible particles, and bioburden that 0.22 µm filtration cannot address.
-
1
0.1 µm Pre-filtration I
Removes large particulates and aggregates; protects downstream filter geometry and extends filter life across microchannel-scale flow paths.
-
2
0.04 µm Pre-filtration II
Fine particulate and bacteria removal; retains mycoplasma (typical diameter 0.1–0.3 µm) — a critical step absent in standard 0.22 µm filtration.
-
3
0.1 µm Sterile-filtration I
Second-pass redundancy for residual contaminants and bioburden; ensures no breakthrough from Stage 1 reaches the final filter.
-
4
0.04 µm Sterile-filtration II — Final Polish
Ultimate polishing step; ISO Class 5 aseptic fill performed in a validated laminar-flow workstation under full GMP-aligned conditions.
Performance vs. conventional media
By achieving a 0.04 µm final pore size across four sequential stages, FluxMPS™ delivers approximately 5× cleaner media by particulate count compared to single-pass 0.22 µm filtration, with full USP <788> compliance verified on every production lot.
