HIMEDIA RPMI-1640 w/ L-Glutamine and 20mM HEPES
SKU: AL197A-500ML
HIMEDIA RPMI-1640 w/ L-Glutamine and 20mM HEPES Buffer w/o Sodium Bicarbonate 500ML
Product Description:
Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) media are a series of media developed by Moore et al for the culture of human normal and neoplastic cells in vitro. RPMI-1640 is the most commonly used medium in the series. A modification of McCoy's 5A medium, the medium was specifically designed to support the growth of human lymphoblastoid cells in suspension culture. Presently the medium is extensively used for a wide range of anchorage
dependant cell lines. The medium needs to be supplemented with 5-20% fetal bovine serum. The medium is also known to support growth of cells in the absence of serum.
AL197A is RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 20mM HEPES buffer and L-Glutamine. It does not contain sodium bicarbonate. HEPES, a zwitterionic buffer having a pKa of 7.3 at 37°C prevents the initial rise in pH that tends to occur at the initiation of a culture and increases the buffering capacity of the medium.
Users are advised to review the literature for recommendations regarding medium supplementation and physiological growth requirements specific for different cell lines.
