General description

Medium 199 is a combination of vitamins, amino acids, and other factors that were originally developed as a completely defined media formulation for the culture of primary explants. This medium, when properly supplemented has broad applicability, particularly for non-transformed cells. Medium 199 is widely used for vaccine production, in vitro cultivation of primary pancreatic explants, and lens tissues.

Application

Medium 199 has been used:
  • to test and determine the pH sensitivity of the sensors in a complex environment
  • as a culture medium during oocyte harvesting
  • as a component of Leishmania donovani (LdBOB) promastigote media for culturing L. donovani
  • to culture visceral adipose tissue explants

Preparation Note

Formulated to contain 10.6 grams of powder per liter of medium.

Questions

  1. Once prepared, how long can the media stay refrigerated? Can it be frozen?

    1 answer
    1. When reconstituted and filter sterilized, this medium is expected to have a similar shelf-life as prepared 1X Medium 199 with Hanks salts and L-glutamine. See product 51322C for the prepared liquid medium. This product has an expiration date of 1 year from the date of quality release. Upon the addition of serum or other heat-sensitive components, the shelf life would be limited to 1 - 2 weeks at 2 - 8°C. Freeze/thaw cycles may result in precipitate formation.
