General description

Modification of the original MEM formulation. Earle′s salts have been replaced with Hanks′ salts. Since the bicarbonate concentration is substantially lower, this medium has a substantially reduced buffering capacity.

Preparation Note

Supplement with 0.292 g/L L-glutamine.

Storage Class

12 - Non Combustible Liquids

Metabolic pathways of cancer cells depend on the concentrations of nutrients in their micro-environment as well as on the cell-to-cell interactions. Here we examined the effects of glucose, pyruvate and glutamine on the sensitivity of MDA-MB-231 cells to metabolic drug metformin

Cysteine proteases have been shown to be essential virulence factors and drug targets in trypanosomatids and an attractive antidisease vaccine candidate for Trypanosoma congolense. Here, we describe an important amplification of genes encoding cathepsin B-like proteases unique to T. congolense.

Calcium is an ionically stable divalent cation with important beneficial and toxic properties in cell culture. It is a component of a wide range of cell culture media.

A large selection of MEM formulations. Minimum Essential Medium (MEM), developed by Harry Eagle, is one of the most widely used of all synthetic cell culture media.
