Frequently Asked Questions
What is DMEM High Glucose used for in cell culture?
DMEM High Glucose is a widely used mammalian cell culture medium designed for adherent cell lines and primary cells. It provides a high-energy environment that supports rapid cell growth and is commonly used in cell line expansion, primary cell culture, and endothelial or hepatocyte research workflows.
Why is high glucose DMEM preferred for certain cell types?
The high glucose formulation (4.5 g/L glucose) supports energy-demanding cells with elevated metabolic activity. This makes it suitable for mammalian cell culture systems requiring consistent growth performance, especially in serum-supplemented (FBS) conditions.
Does this DMEM contain L-glutamine and sodium pyruvate?
Yes. This DMEM formulation includes L-glutamine and sodium pyruvate, which are essential for amino acid metabolism and energy production. These components are standard in many sterile filtered cell culture media used for research-grade mammalian cell culture.
Is this medium sterile and endotoxin tested?
Yes. The product is sterile filtered and USP sterility tested, with endotoxin levels ≤5 EU/mL. This ensures reliability in sensitive mammalian cell culture applications and maintains consistency comparable to leading cell culture media manufacturers such as Gibco and Sigma-Aldrich.
What serum should be used with DMEM High Glucose?
This medium is typically supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) to support optimal cell growth, attachment, and proliferation in mammalian cell culture systems.
Can this medium be used for primary cell culture?
Yes. DMEM High Glucose is commonly used for primary cell culture, including hepatocytes, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells, providing a stable and nutrient-rich environment for sensitive cell types.
