DMEM

Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) is a standardized cell culture medium. Its high nutrient content makes it very suitable for the cultivation of a wide range of adherent cell types such as mammalian cells, insect cells and plant cells. DMEM was originally developed for the cultivation of embryonic mouse cells and today it is one of the most commonly used cell culture media. DMEM is a modified Eagle medium and is characterized by its fourfold content of vitamins and amino acids. For cell cultivation, the medium should be supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FBS).

Whether high (4.5 g/l) or low glucose (1.0 g/l), with L-glutamine or without, whether in powder or liquid form. We offer you a wide selection of DMEM media. Find the right DMEM for your cells!
