I wanted to expand purchased iPSC. According to my protocol I should not use antibiotics. I am expanding them under feeder free conditions (coating with Geltrex) and using complete Essential 8 Medium from Life tech. After 6 days of culture I got a nice bacterial contamination. For the next batch I would like to add antibiotics to the medium. What is your experience? Do you use antibiotics and what are your conditions? Why is it not indicated to use antibiotics with iPSC?
