Classical and Basal Cell Culture Media
Gibco™ Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Basal Medium (formerly Medium 231)
Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Basal Medium formerly Medium 231) is a sterile, liquid culture medium intended for use as one component in a complete culture environment for the growth of normal human vascular smooth muscle cells. When supplemented with SMGS, this medium will support the plating and proliferation of smooth muscle cells at densities between 2.5 x 103 cells/cm2 and 1 x 105 cells/cm2.
Gibco™ William's E Medium, GlutaMAX™ Supplement
GlutaMAX™ supplement minimizes toxic ammonia build-up and improves cell viability and growth in an easy-to-use format.
Gibco™ Medium 199, no phenol red
Medium 199 was originally developed for nutritional studies of chick embryo fibroblasts. It has broad species applicability, particularly for cultivation of non-transformed cells.
Gibco™ Opti-MEM™ I Reduced Serum Medium, no phenol red
Opti-MEM™ I Reduced-Serum Medium is an improved Minimal Essential Medium (MEM) that allows for a reduction of Fetal Bovine Serum supplementation by at least 50% with no change in cell growth rate or morphology.
Gibco™ IMDM, GlutaMAX™ Supplement
IMDM (Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's Medium) is well suited for rapidly proliferating, high-density cell cultures, including Jurkat, COS-7, and macrophage cells.
Gibco™ Ham's F-12K (Kaighn's) Medium
Ham's F-12K (Kaighn's) Medium is a modification of Ham's F-12 Nutrient Mixture. Ham's F-12K (Kaighn's) Medium was developed for primary human hepatocytes, as well as for some rat and chicken liver cells in a reduced serum environment.
Gibco™ Ham's F-12 Nutrient Mix, GlutaMAX™ Supplement
Ham's F-12 Nutrient Mixture (F-12) was designed for serum-free single-cell plating of Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells.
Gibco™ Ham's F-12 Nutrient Mix, powder
Ham's F-12 Nutrient Mixture (F-12) was designed for serum-free single-cell plating of Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells.
