Advanced McCoy’s 5A Modified Media (A-M5AMM)

Advanced McCoy’s 5A Modified Media (A-M5AMM) contains L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine as well as ingredients to allow for serum reduction.  Additionally, Advanced McCoy’s 5A needs 2-5% FBS and provides more consistency.

Description

Advanced McCoy’s 5A Modified Media (A-M5AMM)

Background

PurMa Advanced McCoy’s 5A Modified Media (A-M5AMM) 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 McCoy’s 5A, L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine is used as the source of glutamine. Additionally, reducing FBS requirements lowers the cost of cell culture experiments.

Contents

Advanced McCoy’s 5A Contains:

  • includes all twenty essential and non-essential amino acids with higher concentrations than regular and MAX formulations.
  • Advanced McCoy’s 5A incorporates elements that significantly reduce the need for a serum for cell culture.

Crucial Ingredients:

  • PurMa™ 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.

Consequently, Advanced McCoy’s 5A Modified Media (A-M5AMM) is a significant step toward a chemically defined form of this media. Unquestionably, Chemically Defined Advanced McCoy’s 5A (CD-A-M5AMM) is the outcome of decades of cutting-edge research and will soon be offered globally to laboratories that are looking for consistency and repeatability in their data.
