General description
Myocyte Growth Medium Kit
Application
Myocyte Growth Medium is a low serum (5% V/V) medium supplemented with well chosen hormones and growth factors. It was developed for the optimal expansion and maintenance of primary cardiac myocytes in culture. The medium is optimized for primary human cells but can also be used for primary porcine cardiac myocytes.Recommended for:Human Cardiac Myocytes (HCM)
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
Quality
All lots of PromoCell Myocyte Growth Medium are subjected to comprehensive quality control tests using primary human cardiac myocytes. Each lot is checked for growth promoting activity, adherence rate, and typical morphology of the tested myocytes. Approved in-house lots of media are used as a reference. In addition, all lots of media have been tested for the absence of microbial contaminants (fungi, bacteria, mycoplasma).
Preparation Note
Final supplement concentrations after addition to the basal medium:Fetal Calf Serum: 0.05 ml / mlEpidermal Growth Factor (recombinant human): 0.5 ng / mlBasic Fibroblast Growth Factor (recombinant human): 2 ng / ml Insulin (recombinant human): 5 µg / ml
