    Advanced Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle′s Medium (A-DMEM)

    Background:

    PurMaTM Advanced Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle′s Medium (A-DMEM) contains components that allow for a 60–90% reduction in FBS supplementation. More importantly, using synthetic components such as recombinant insulin, albumin, and transferrin increase consistency. This results in less variation amongst lot-to-lot serum changes.  In Advanced DMEM, L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine is used as the source of glutamine.  Additionally, reducing FBS requirements lowers the cost of cell culture experiments.

    A-DMEM Contains:

    • Advanced Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle′s Medium (A-DMEM) contains all the twenty essential and non-essential amino acids with higher concentrations than regular and MAX formulations.
    • It includes the elements which significantly reduce the need for a serum for cell culture.

    Crucial Ingredients:

    • PurMaTM Human Transferrin (Holo): prevents improper iron storage and delivery in cell culture systems which is a major contributor to oxidative stress and protein damage.
    • PurMaTM Insulin Recombinant
    • Trace of other elements which mimic the elements in fetal bovine serum.
    Additionally, A-DMEM is a significant step toward a chemically defined form of this media. Undoubtedly, Chemically Defined DMEM (CD-DMEM) is the outcome of decades of cutting-edge research. CD-DMEM will soon be offered globally to laboratories who are looking for consistency and repeatability among their data.

    DMEM

    Background; Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium

    Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM) is a modification of Basal Medium Eagle (BME). Currently, DMEM is one of the most widely used media.

    Major modifications compared to the original formulation:

    1. Although the original Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium contained 1000 mg/L of glucose, there are different Glucose amounts used.  As shown below, PurMa Biologics DMEM contains 4.5 g/L glucose. Additionally, PurMa Biologics offers a (1.5 g/L) low glucose (P3SO28105) condition.
    2. Furthermore, DMEM contains fourfold more amino acids and vitamins compared to the original formulation. DMEM is a good choice for growing the primary cell culture of mouse and chicken cells. Moreover, for a variety of normal and transformed cells, this media can be used properly. Each of these DMEMs, by comparison, offers a different combination of L-glutamine and sodium pyruvate.
    3. More importantly, DMEM has several fold more buffering capacities (3.7g/L NaHCO3) Need of FBS.

    Lastly, DMEM Contains:

    Furthermore, DMEM contains no proteins, lipids, or growth factors. Therefore, it requires supplementation, commonly with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS).
    • High glucose (4.5g/L)
    • Non-essential amino acids
    • Sodium pyruvate (0.11 g/L)
    • Phenol red (0.0015g/L)
    • L-glutamine (0.585 g/L)

    Types of DMEM

    Currently, PurMa Biologics Manufactures three forms of DMEM: Standard, MAX, and Advanced. Moreover, the optimization of these three forms of DMEM is the outcome of decades of cell culture research and experience.  Undoubtedly, our DMEM delivers exceptional growth and consistency for your cell culture projects.

    Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle′s Medium-MAX (DMEM-MAX)

    Background:

    Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle′s Medium-MAX (DMEM-MAX) is a commonly used media for Mammalian cell culture.

    Advantages:

    Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle′s Medium-MAX (DMEM-MAX) over DMEM:

    Higher PH Capacity Moreover, it contains 4 mM L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine (0.869 g/L) instead of L-Glutamine and therefore: Possess longer shelf life. More importantly, minimizes toxic ammonia build-up. Significantly improves cell viability and growth. Remains stable across a wide range of temperatures. Improves the culture of primary cells.

    Mechanism:

    Although L-glutamine is a vital amino acid, it degrades, resulting in the generation of toxic ammonia and pyrrolidine carboxylic acid. One way to minimize L-glutamine degradation in media is to gradually add these amino acids to your cell culture. However, keeping track of time to keep the amount of L-glutamine at the same level is tedious, if not impossible. Alternatively, L-alanyl-L-glutamine can be used because it is much more stable in aqueous solutions. More importantly, it does not easily degrade and gradually releases aminopeptidases. As a result, L-glutamine and L-alanine are then used by the cells for protein production in the TCA cycle. In addition to our Max formulation products, we manufacture PurMaTM GluaSup (Cat# P3S210 559) is a combination of L-alanyl-L-glutamine which prevents degradation of L-glutamine.

Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM) is a modification of Basal Medium Eagle. Our DMEM, optimized to deliver exceptional growth and consistency, is available in Standard, MAX, and Advanced formulations.

Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM)  contains fourfold more amino acids and vitamins compared to the original formulation. DMEM is a good choice for growing the primary cell culture of mouse and chicken cells. Moreover, this media can be used properly for a variety of normal and transformed cells. Each of these DMEM formulations, by comparison, offers a different combination of L-glutamine and sodium pyruvate. More importantly, DMEM has several fold more buffering capacities (3.7g/L NaHCO3).

Furthermore, DMEM contains no proteins, lipids, or growth factors. Therefore, it requires supplementation, commonly with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS).
