Iscove’s Modified Dulbecco’s Medium (IMDM)

Although, Iscove’s Modified Dulbecco’s Medium (IMDM) is specialized for rapidly proliferating, cell lines, it certainly quite suitable for slow growing cells as well. Moreover, this medium is the only medium that lacks Iron, with potassium nitrate replacing ferric nitrate , therefore makes it an excellent choice for adhesive cells.

Description

Background

Iscove’s Modified Dulbecco’s Medium (IMDM) is specialized for rapidly proliferating, high-density cell lines. Therefore, it is excellent for Jurkat, Hek, COS-7, and macrophage cells. IMDM is a modified and more advanced version of DMEM. Additionally, it includes selenium as well as additional amino acids and vitamins. it is the only medium that lacks Iron, with potassium nitrate replacing ferric nitrate, therefore it makes it excellent  for adhesive cells.

Ingredients

It contains:

  • High Buffering Capacity with High NaHCO3 as well as  High HEPES
  • Sodium Bicarbonate (3.02 g/L)
  • 5.9 g/L HEPES
  • High glucose 4.5g/L
  • Non-Essential Amino Acids
  • 110 mg/L Sodium pyruvate (1.0 mM)
  • 15 mg/L Phenol Red
  • 0.584 g/L L-glutamine
