Description

General description

This DMEM-Low glucose medium is a 1x complete medium with sodium pyruvate added. It also differs from the original DMEM-Hi formulation wherein pyridoxine is substituted for pyridoxal. Pyridoxal is an unstable component of media.

Application

Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle′s Medium-low glucose is a fully supplemented liquid form of the original Dulbecco′s formulation, with one key exception. Pyridoxal, which is an aldehyde, has been replaced with pyridoxine. This modification has been shown to improve the stability of the medium.
Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle′s Medium - low glucose has been used in the maintenance/culturing of mammalian cells.
