MEM α-Modification with Nucleosides in Hanks’ Buffer

Background

MEM α-Modification with Nucleosides  in Hanks’ buffer provides a great nutritional culture environment during mammalian cells.  This media, as well plays a key role in the process of selection of transfected DHFR-negative cells. Moreover, MEM-α-N-HBSS is widely used for a variety of suspension and adherent cells. Calcium, however, plays a crucial role in media as eliminating this ion facilitates the growth of cells in suspension cultures.

Ingredients

MEM-α with nucleosides is basically the modified version of MEM-α and contains:

  • Ribonucleosides
  • Deoxyribonucleosides
  • Non-essential amino acids.
  • Sodium pyruvate.
  • Lipoic acid.
  • Vitamin B12.
  • Biotin and,
  • Ascorbic acid.

PurMa™ MEM-α-N-HBSS contains HBSS buffer

The composition of HBSS buffer:

  1. Potassium Chloride
  2. Potassium Phosphate, monobasic
  3. Sodium Bicarbonate
  4. Sodium Chloride
  5. Sodium Phosphate, dibasic

Additionally, MEM-α-N-HBSS also Contains:

  • Low level of glucose (1.00 g/ liter)
  • Sodium bicarbonate (0.35 g/L)
  • 2 mM L-glutamine (292 mg/L)

PurMa Biologics manufactures 119 types of MEM-α-N-HBSS

Application

Furthermore,  MEM-α-N-HBSS is used for various cell types such as keratinocytes, primary rat astrocytes, as well as human melanoma cells. also, MEM-α-N-HBSS has been used for the isolation of mesenchymal stem cells, adipose-derived stem cells, and osteoblasts. Moreover, MEM α-Modification is widely used for primary osteoblast cultures.
