Is the glutamine that has already been added stable glutamine? How long is the shelf life?
1 answer-
This product does not contain Alanyl-glutamine, which is considered a more stable form It has been supplemented with L-glutamine and will remain stable through out the shelf life of the product with proper storage and handling. Typical lots of D8437 are assigned an expiration date of 1 year from the date of release. Note that under culture conditions of 37 deg C the L-glutamine will gradually degrade. See the link below to review general stability information regarding L-glutamine.:

Can Product D8437, Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12 Ham, be used under serum free conditions?
1 answer-
When DME/F12 is used under serum free conditions, supplementation is necessary. DME/F12 can be used for growing the epithelial cell line TM4 (mouse testes) when supplemented with insulin, transferrin, EGF, FSH, somatomedin C, ovine growth hormone, and retinoic acid. Primary cultures of Sertoli cells can also be grown in the above supplemented media. Rat glial C6 cells have been grown in DME/F12 supplemented with transferrin, insulin, LH, and rat submaxillary gland extract. See: Jakoby, W.B., and Pastan, I.H., Cell Culture, Methods in Enzymology, 58, 103-106 (1979). (This book is listed as Product No. C0541).
