Cultured cells: RPMI 1640 medium is used for human leukemia cell suspension monolayer cell culture. Currently RPMI 1640 has been found to be suitable for a wide variety of mammalian cells, including Jurkat cells, MCF-7, PC12, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, astrocytes and carcinomas, human epithelial colorectal adenocarcinoma (HCT) -15), human lymphoid Burkitt lymphoma (EB-3, Raji), histiocytic lymphoma (U937), human lymphoblastic myeloma patient bone marrow (IM-9), lymphoma patient blood (Daudi), T cells Lymphoma (H9), promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60), T-cell leukemia (Jurkat), myeloid leukemia (K-562), (PC12, B95-8)。

 Recommended use :

- Respect storage conditions of the product

- Do not use the product after its expiry date

- Store product in an area protected from light (not necessary for saline solutions).

- Manipulate the product in aseptic conditions (e.g. : under laminar air flow)

The product is intended to be used in vitro, in laboratory only. Do not use it in therapy, human or veterinary applications.

Applications :

RPMI 1640 medium has a broad spectrum of mammalian and hybridoma cell applications. It was developed by Moore and his co-workers at Roswell Park Memorial Institute in 1966 for the growth of human leukemia cells in monolayer or suspension cultures. It is typically supplemented with serum or serum substitutes.

 Uses :

Supplements, such as antibiotics, should be added as sterile supplements to the medium. Storage conditions and shelf-life of supplemented product will be affected by the nature of the supplements.

Signs of Deterioration :

Medium should be clear and free of particulate and flocculent material. Do not use if medium is cloudy or contains precipitate.

Other evidence of deterioration may include colour change or degradation of physical or performance characteristics.

It can only be used for scientific research. It is forbidden to use it for human, animal or other purposes.
