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.
AT150 is RPMI 1640 with L-glutamine. It does not contain glucose. Users are advised to review the literature for recommendations regarding medium supplementation and physiological growth requirements specific for different cell lines.

Directions :
- Suspend 8.4gms in 900 ml tissue culture grade water with constant, gentle stirring until the powder is completely dissolved. Do not heat the water.
- It may be necessary to lower the pH to 4.0 with 1N HCl to completely dissolve this product. After it has dissolved completely, the pH can be raised to 7.2 with 1N NaOH prior to the addition of sodium bicarbonate.
- Add 2.0gms of sodium bicarbonate powder (TC230) or 26.7ml of 7.5% Sodium bicarbonate solution (TCL013) for 1 litre of medium and stir until dissolved.
- Adjust the pH to 0.2 - 0.3 pH units below the desired pH using 1N HCl or 1N NaOH since the pH tends to rise during filtration.
- Make up the final volume to 1000ml with tissue culture grade water.
- Sterilize the medium immediately by filtering through a sterile membrane filter with a porosity of 0.22 micron or less, using positive pressure rather than vacuum to minimize the loss of carbon dioxide.
- Aseptically add sterile supplements as required and dispense the desired amount of sterile medium into sterile containers.
- Store liquid medium at 2-8°C and in dark till use.
