Applications
MEM was developed by Dr. Harry Eagle to overcome problems encountered when attempting to grow normal fibroblasts and certain sub-types of HeLa cells. Many other modification of MEM followed including alpha- MEM and DMEM. MEM Spinner was developed when calcium component was removed from the MEM medium, and resulted in a medium that supports the growth of cells in suspension.
