Application

Mammary Epithelial Cell Growth Medium is a serum-free medium developed for the cultivation of epithelial cells from the mammary gland. The medium is optimized for primary human cells but can also be used for rat and murine mammary epithelial cells as well as mamma carcinoma cell lines.Recommended for:Human Mammary Epithelial Cells

Components

Part of a Cell Culture System offered in a variety of formats:Growth Medium (Ready-to-use): Includes Basal Medium and SupplementMixGrowth Medium Kit: Includes Basal Medium and SupplementPackSupplementMix: Contains all media supplements premixed in one vialSupplementPack: Contains all media supplements as individual vials
