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 culture human mesothelial cells[1]
  • as a component of the holding medium for the collection of embryos from pluriparous Boer goat
  • in the preparation of spheroid-embedded collagen matrices[2]

Preparation Note

Supplement with 0.1 g/L L-glutamine, 2.2 g/L sodium bicarbonate at 1×.

Questions

  1. If I have 10x Medium, how can I dilute it in order to have 1x and grow cells?

    1 answer
    1. Since certain components in 10X medium concentrates precipitate at pH 7.0, it is necessary to adjust the pH of these solutions to maintain solubility.
      Therefore, it may be necessary for the user to adjust the pH of the 1X preparation with sterile 1 N NaOH or 1 N HCl. Procedure For Dilution to 1X (1 Liter):
      (NOTE: Dilution of 10X solutions should be performed with sterile containers, components, and equipment.)
      • Aseptically measure out approximately 850 ml of tissue culture grade water into an appropriate size container.
      • While gently stirring the water, add 100 ml of 10X medium.
      • To the solution, add the required amount of sodium bicarbonate ( 0.35 g/L) and L-glutamine (0.1 g/L), at 1X
      • While stirring, adjust the solution to desired pH with 1 N NaOH or 1 N HCl.
      • Bring medium to final volume with additional tissue culture grade water.
      • It is recommended to sterile filter the prepared medium through a 0.22 ?m sterile membrane, or, for example, a Stericup.
      • Aseptically dispense into sterile containers. Store refrigerated at 2-8° C
