Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM)
Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium is a modification of Basal Medium Eagle. Our DMEM, optimized to deliver exceptional growth and consistency, is available in Standard, MAX, and Advanced formulations. Furthermore, PurMa Biologics currently manufactures 145 conditions of this media.
Description
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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
