Cardiac Myocyte Medium-serum free

Cardiac Myocyte Medium-serum free (CMM-sf), when used with Cardiac Myocyte Growth Supplement-serum free (CMGS-sf, Cat #6152) is a complete medium designed for the culture of normal cardiac myocytes in serum-free conditions. It is a sterile, liquid medium which contains essential and non-essential amino acids, vitamins, organic and inorganic compounds, hormones, growth factors and trace minerals. The medium is HEPES and bicarbonate buffered and has a pH of 7.4 when equilibrated in an incubator with an atmosphere of 5% CO2/95% air. The medium is formulated (quantitatively and qualitatively) to provide an optimally balanced nutritional environment that selectively supports the culture of normal cardiac myocytes in vitro under serum free conditions.
