Astrocyte Medium-animal

M0328

Astrocyte Medium-animal (AM-a), when used with Astrocyte Growth Supplement-animal (AGS-a, Cat #1882) and 10 ml of fetal bovine serum (FBS) is a complete medium designed for optimal growth of normal animal astrocytes in vitro. It is a sterile, liquid medium which contains essential and non-essential amino acids, vitamins, organic and inorganic compounds, hormones, growth factors, trace minerals and a low concentration of fetal bovine serum (2%). The medium is HEPES and bicarbonate buffered and has a pH of 7.4 when equilibrated in an incubator with an atmosphere of 5% CO2/95% air. The medium is formulated (quantitatively and qualitatively) to provide an optimally balanced nutritional environment that selectively supports the growth of normal animal astrocytes in vitro.

Store the basal medium at 4℃, the AGS, the FBS and the P/S solution at -20 ℃. Protect from light.
