Product Description
Glasgow's MEM (GMEM), originally developed by Ian McPherson and Michael Stoker for use with renal cell lines such as BGK-21, is a modified form of Eagle's minimum essential medium. It is used to study the genetic factors that influence the ability of cells. This product, Glasgow's MEM, contains amino acids and vitamins at twice the concentration of the original base Eagle medium and contains no proteins, lipids or growth factors. Therefore, before use, add a supplement of 10% tryptone phosphate broth as needed. Glasgow MEM uses a sodium bicarbonate buffer system (2.75 g/L) and therefore requires a 5-10% CO2 environment to maintain physiological pH.
This product is filtered and sterilized by 0.1 μm membrane, pH 6.7-7.1, containing 25 mM D-glucose, with 2.0 mM L-alanyl-L-glutamine added, no phenol red indicator, no sodium pyruvate, no HEPES buffer system, and no tryptone phosphate broth.
Storage and Shipping Conditions
