Grace’s Medium is and has always been one of the most popular media for insect cell culture. The formulation was designed to resemble the chemical composition of the hemolymph from Bombyx mori (silkmoth). Prior to use, the medium is typically supplemented with FCS, yeast extract, lactalbumin hydrolysate and BSA in varying combinations and amounts.
Bio&SELL Grace's Insect TC Medium is perfectly suited for the culture of dipteran and lepidopteran cell lines.
