Product Information

Product Description/Introduction

MEM (Minimum Essential Medium), also known as minimum basic medium, low limit Eagle medium, is one of the most commonly used basic medium in animal cell culture. MEM contains only 12 amino acids, 8 vitamins and basic inorganic salts, with a simple nutrient composition, is mainly used for the culture of walled cells, but can also be used for other types of cell culture after the formulation is revised.

MEM which contains NEAA (non-essential amino acids) is based on MEM with the addition of 7 NEAA, including L-Alanine, L-Glutamic acid, L-Asparagine, L-Aspartic acid, L-Proline, L-Serine and Glycine, to reduce the side effects of cells’ own synthesis of non-essential amino acids during cell culture and effectively promote cell proliferation and metabolism.

This product contains amino acids, vitamins, inorganic salts and other ingredients required for cell culture, without protein or growth factors. Need to add serum or serum-free additives depending on the cell type.

This product is filtered and sterilized by 0.1 μm filter membrane, pH 7.0-7.4, contains 5.5 mM D-glucose, phenol red indicator, without L-glutamine, sodium pyruvate and HEPES.
