Brand:  Gibco™ 12320032

Product Code. 10644633

Description

• Contains 4 times the concentration of amino acids and vitamins than the original Eagle's Minimal Essential Medium
• Originally formulated with low glucose (1g/L) and sodium pyruvate, but is often used with higher glucose levels, with or without sodium pyruvate
• Contains no proteins, lipids, or growth factors
• Requires supplementation, commonly with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS)
• Uses sodium bicarbonate buffer system (3.7g/L), and therefore requires a 5 to 10% CO₂ environment to maintain physiological pH
• Cells successfully cultured in DMEM include primary fibroblasts, neurons, glial cells, HUVECs, and smooth muscle cells, cell lines such as HeLa, 293, Cos-7, and PC-12
