Description: Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) with Earle's Balanced Salts is a modification of Eagle's earlier medium, Basal Medium Eagle (BME), containing higher concentrations of the essential nutrients. These media have demonstrated the ability to support a variety of normal and transformed cells in culture and contain Earle's Balanced Salts, which make them suitable for use in atmospheres charged with CO₂ gas.

Description: Ham's F12 was originally developed for the serum-free clonal growth of Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells, lung cells and mouse L-cells. It is frequently used with dialysed serum, hormones, selenium and other supplements for serum-free cultures. It is the medium of choice for supporting the growth of cells of rodent origin, particularly rabbit and rat and has proved to be an excellent cloning medium for the culture of myeloma and hybrid cells.

Description: Studies to determine the nutritional requirements of many cells have been in progress since Eagle's first reports. The major essential nutrients were identified, and work became focussed on the media requirements of individual cell types. Many media designed for these purposes are now available. Among the first of these media, developed initially to study hormonal requirements of cells in culture, was a mixture of DMEM and Ham's F12 medium, known as DMEM-Ham's F12.

Description: The Leibovitz L-15 media were formulated to promote the cell growth in medium not balanced in CO₂. The formulations were developed with the sodium bicarbonate buffer. The Leibovitz L-15 media are buffered by a complement of salts, free base amino acids and galactose so they can be used under conditions of free gaseous exchange with the atmosphere. When properly supplemented, L-15 Medium supports established cell lines, such as HEp-2 and LLC-MK2, as well as primary explants of embryonic and adult human tissue. Many viruses also have been successfully cultivated in this medium.

Description: VWR Trypsin-EDTA solutions are used in cell culture to remove adherent cells from a culture surface. Trypsin is a porcine pancreas-derived enzyme that is commonly used for the dissociation and disaggregation of anchorage-dependent mammalian cells and tissues. The concentration of trypsin necessary to separate cells from their substrate is dependent primarily on the cell type and the age of the culture. EDTA, a chelating agent, enhances enzymatic activity by removing calcium and magnesium ions. These ions obscure the peptide bonds on which trypsin acts as well as enhancing cell to cell adhesion.
