General description

Mammary Epithelial Cell Growth Medium SupplementMix (basal medium sold separately)

To form a complete medium, it should be combined with the basal medium: C-21210

Application

Mammary Epithelial Cell Growth Medium is a serum-free medium developed for the cultivation of epithelial cells from the mammary gland. The medium is optimized for primary human cells but can also be used for rat and murine mammary epithelial cells as well as mamma carcinoma cell lines.Recommended for:Human Mammary Epithelial Cells

Components

Part of a Cell Culture System offered in a variety of formats:Growth Medium (Ready-to-use): Includes Basal Medium and SupplementMixGrowth Medium Kit: Includes Basal Medium and SupplementPackSupplementMix: Contains all media supplements premixed in one vialSupplementPack: Contains all media supplements as individual vials

Quality

All lots of PromoCell Mammary Epithelial Cell Growth Medium are subjected to comprehensive quality control tests using primary human mammary epithelial cells. Each lot is checked for growth promoting activity, adherence rate, and typical morphology of the tested mammary epithelial cells. Approved in-house lots of media are used as a reference. In addition, all lots of media have been tested for the absence of microbial contaminants (fungi, bacteria, mycoplasma).

Preparation Note

Final supplement concentrations after addition to the basal medium:Bovine Pituitary Extract: 0.004 ml / mlEpidermal Growth Factor (recombinant human): 10 ng / mlInsulin (recombinant human): 5 µg / mlHydrocortisone: 0.5 µg / ml
