Serum-free NK cell culture medium

By using interleukin-type NK cell activating factors, fat-soluble vitamins, trace elements, and serum substitutes as activators and amplifying agents, combined with coating agents such as anti-CD38 antibodies, a serum-free culture medium and culture vessel were constructed. This solved the safety risks and high costs associated with serum use in existing NK cell cultures, and achieved efficient amplification and activation of NK cells.
