Beschreibung

General description

MCDB-131 medium provides a defined and optimally balanced nutritional environment that selectively promotes the growth of specific cell types. MCDB-131 is designed to support clonal growth of human microvascular endothelial cells, including human umbilical vein endothelial cells, when supplemented with 0.7% FBSP, 10 ng/ml epidermal growth factor, and 1 μg/ml hydrocortisone. MCDB media is made for the low-protein or serum-free growth of specific cell types using hormones, growth factors, trace elements, or low levels of dialyzed fetal bovine serum protein (FBSP). 

Application

MCDB-131 Medium has been used:

• as a component of the basal medium to culture bovine retinal endothelial cells[1]
• to culture bovine lung microvascular endothelial cells[2]
• for the isolation of porcine endocranial endothelial cells and porcine aortic endothelial cells[3]

Preparation Note

Formulated to contain 11.6 grams of powder per liter of medium.

Supplement with 1.18 g/L sodium bicarbonate.
