RPMI-1640培养基，RPMI-1640 Medium [StableCell™ RPMI-1640]；With stable glutamine and sodium bicarbonate, liquid, sterile-filtered, suitable for cell culture

RPMI 1640 Medium was developed at Roswell Park Memorial Institute in 1966 by Moore and his co-workers. A modification of McCoy′s 5A Medium, it was formulated to support lymphoblastoid cells in suspension culture, but it has since been shown to support a wide variety of cells that are anchorage-dependent. Originally intended to be used with a serum supplement, RPMI 1640 has been shown to support several cell lines in the absence of serum. It has also been widely used in fusion protocols and in the growth of hybrid cells. This medium is suitable for culturing human normal and neoplastic leukocytes.

 

该RPMI-1640培养基补充有L-Ala-L-Gln二肽，为细胞培养提供了更稳定的谷氨酰胺形式。已知游离氨基酸L-谷氨酰胺在细胞培养中不稳定。
