Product Description
Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM), High glucose, is a widely used cell culture medium designed to support the growth of various mammalian cells. This high-glucose formulation is particularly suitable for cells that require a higher energy source, such as many types of cancer cells and some primary cells. The AL151A-500 ml variant from Himedia is known for its high quality and reliability, making it a preferred choice for researchers and educators alike.
DMEM is a modification of the basal medium developed by Harry Eagle, which was further modified by Renato Dulbecco to support the growth of a wider range of cell types. The high-glucose version contains 4.5 g/L of glucose, providing a rich energy source for cells that require it. This medium is supplemented with essential amino acids, vitamins, and inorganic salts to meet the nutritional needs of various cell types.

FAQs
What is the difference between high-glucose and low-glucose DMEM?
High-glucose DMEM contains 4.5 g/L of glucose, while low-glucose DMEM contains 1 g/L of glucose. The choice between the two depends on the specific requirements of the cells being cultured.
Is DMEM suitable for all types of cells?
DMEM is suitable for a wide range of mammalian cells, but the specific formulation (high-glucose, low-glucose, etc.) should be chosen based on the cell type’s requirements.
What are the storage conditions for DMEM?
DMEM should be stored at 2-8°C and protected from light. It is recommended to use the medium within the specified shelf life to ensure optimal performance.
Can DMEM be used for primary cell cultures?
Yes, DMEM can be used for primary cell cultures, but the specific formulation should be chosen based on the cell type’s requirements.
What is the shelf life of DMEM?
The shelf life of DMEM varies by manufacturer, but it is typically around 12-18 months when stored properly. Always check the expiration date on the product label.
