Advanced MEM Alpha-Modification (A-MEM-α) in Earle’s Buffer

$38.01$806.50

Advanced MEM Alpha-Modification (A-MEM-α) in Earle’s Buffer contains L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine as well as ingredients to allow for serum reduction.  Additionally, A-MEM-α needs 2-5% FBS and provides more consistency.

Description

Advanced MEM Alpha-Modification (A-MEM-α) in Earle’s Buffer

Background

PurMaTM Advanced MEM Alpha-Modification (A-MEM-α) in Earle’s Buffer contains components to provide a 60–90% reduction in FBS supplementation. More importantly, using synthetic components such as recombinant insulin, albumin, and transferrin increases consistency. Consequently, this results in less variation amongst lot-to-lot serum changes. L-alanyl-l-glutamine is the source of glutamine in Advanced MEM-α. Additionally, reducing the requirement for FBS lowers the cost of cell culture experiments.

Contents

Advanced MEM-α in EBSS Contains:

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

Crucial Ingredients:

  • PurMaTM 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 MEM Alpha-Modification (A-MEM-α) in Earle’s Buffer is a significant step toward a chemically defined form of this media. Unquestionably, Chemically Defined Advanced MEM-α (CD-A-MEM-α) is the outcome of decades of innovative cutting-edge research and will soon be offered globally to laboratories that are looking for consistency and repeatability in their data.
