Overview

Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640 Medium is unique from other media because it contains the reducing agent glutathione as well as biotin, vitamin B12, and PABA, which are vitamins not found in Eagle’s Minimal Essential Medium or Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium. In addition, RPMI 1640 media includes high concentrations of the vitamins inositol and choline. Because RPMI 1640 contains no proteins, lipids, or growth factors, it is commonly supplemented with fetal bovine serum (FBS). The sodium bicarbonate buffer system used in RPMI 1640 allows for maintenance of physiological pH in a 5–10% CO₂ environment. VitaCellix™ RPMI 1640 Medium has been found suitable for a variety of mammalian cells, including HeLa, Jurkat, MCF-7, PC12, PBMC, astrocytes, and carcinomas. VitaCellix™ offers a variety of modifications to RPMI composition for a range of cell culture applications— find your RPMI-1640 media here.
