Corning™ Minimum Essential Medium Eagle (Mod.) 1X (MEM) with Glutamine

Description

• Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) is a common cell culture medium developed from early work using Basal Medium Eagle (BME) with normal mammalian fibroblasts and certain subtypes of HeLa cells
• This research indicated that additions made to BME aided cell propagation
• MEM is modified with higher concentrations of amino acids to more closely approximate the protein composition of mammalian cells
• When supplemented with serum, MEM has been used for cultivation of a wide variety of cells grown in monolayers, such as fibroblasts.  This formulation contains Earle's salts and L-glutamine.
