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 test and determine the pH sensitivity of the sensors in a complex environment
  • as a culture medium during oocyte harvesting
  • as a component of Leishmania donovani (LdBOB) promastigote media for culturing L. donovani
  • to culture visceral adipose tissue explants

Quantity

Formulated to contain 10.6 grams of powder per liter of medium.

Reconstitution

Supplement with 0.35 g/L sodium bicarbonate.
