Leibovitz's Medium was specifically designed to grow cells in a CO2 free atmosphere. The standard sodium bicarbonate/CO2 buffering system is replaced by combination of free basic amino acids, phosphate buffers and higher levels of galactose and sodium pyruvate. As a result, the medium does not…

Synthetically Defined media known as Yeast Nitrogen Base Media for the growth of Yeast cells were first cited by Wickerham (1,2). Synthetic defined (SD) Growth Medium include a yeast nitrogen base along with ammonium sulfate, and a carbon source, which is further supplemented with various amino…

Minimum Essential Medium is a modification of Basal Medium Eagle (BME). It was developed by Harry Eagle to meet the specific nutritional requirements of certain subtypes of Hela cells and normal mammalian fibroblasts. MEM includes higher concentration of amino acids so as to closely approximate the…

Molecular Biology Water is prepared by reverse osmosis, passed through fine carbon, deionized through two resin beds, and serially filtered through 0.1 µm positively charged membranes, to yield a product with an endotoxin level of less than 0.03 EU/mL. DNase, RNase and protease tested Endotoxin…

Chemicals are carefully selected and, whenever possible, analytical grade materials were used. Finished batches are checked to ensure that they conform to preset high standards before they are released for sale. Except where otherwise indicated, the amounts shown relate to single strength media. …

Includes the macro- and mironutrients as described by Murashige and Skoog, 1962, and vitamins as described by Gamborg, et al., 1966.

Role of a balanced salt solution in cell culture is multifaceted and can be divided into four principal functions: Serves as an irrigating, transporting and diluting fluid while maintaining intra- and extracellular osmotic balance Provides cells with water and certain bulk inorganic ions…

Murashige and Skoog medium is a widely used plant tissue culture growth medium. M&S Basal Medium contains macronutrients that include high levels of nitrate and organic additives such as agar, sugars, vitamins and growth regulators. It has proven effective in the culture of tissue derived from…

William's Medium E was developed by Williams and Gunn for the isolation and long term maintenance of adult rat liver epithelial cells. The medium is a rich modification of William's medium D and was developed during studies performed to explore the possibilities of culturing adult liver…

Nutritionally rich media designed for growth of pure cultures of recombinant strains. 10 g/L of salt formulation Autoclave sterilized LB Agar, Miller and LB Broth, Miller are based on LB Medium as described by Miller for the growth and maintenance of E. coli strains used in molecular…

Preparation of Liquids from Powder Plant Tissue Culture Media: 1. Measure out approximately 25% less purified water (distilled or deionized) than the final volume of medium required. The water should be at room temperature (15°C to 30°C). 2. Stir the water and slowly add the powder. Rinse…

Terrific Broth is an enriched medium, which helps the recombinant strains of E. coli maintain an extended growth phase. The large amount of tryptone and yeast extract in the medium allows the bacteria to produce a higher plasmid yield. Autoclave sterilized Ready to use Applications …

Hanks' Balanced Salts solution is used to maintain the pH and osmotic balance in the medium and to provide the cells with water and essential inorganic ions.

Hoagland's Modified Basal Salt Mixture includes the macro- and micronutrients as described by Hoagland and Arnon, 1950.

Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) is the most widely used modification of Eagle's Basal Medium (BME). DMEM contains four times greater concentration of amino acids, vitamins and supplementary components. The original formulation calls for 1000 mg/L of glucose, which was first…
