Ham's F-12 Nutrient Mixture (F-12) was designed for serum-free, single-cell plating of Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells. F-12 has since been used for serum-free growth of CHO cultures as well as serum-supplemented growth of other mammalian cells, including chondrocytes and rat prostate epithelial cells. We offer a variety of F-12 modifications for a range of cell culture applications. Find the right formulation using the media selector tool.


This Ham's F-12 is modified as follows:
With
• L-glutamine
• Phenol Red


The complete formulation is available.

Using F-12
Compared to other basal media, F-12 contains a wider variety of components, including zinc, putrescine, hypoxanthine, and thymidine. F-12 contains no proteins or growth factors. Therefore, F-12 requires supplementation, commonly with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS). F-12 uses a sodium bicarbonate buffer system (1.176 g/L), and therefore requires a 5–10% CO2 environment to maintain physiological pH.

Abstract
Structural basis of G protein specificity of human endothelin receptors. A study with endothelinA/B chimeras.
Authors: Takagi Y; Ninomiya H; Sakamoto A; Miwa S; Masaki T;
Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:7730310
'The endothelin (ET) family of peptides acts via two subtypes of guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein (G protein)-coupled receptors termed ETA and ETB. ET-1 stimulated cAMP formation in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably expressing human wild-type ETA (CHO/hETA cells) while it inhibited cAMP formation in CHO cells expressing human wild-type ... More
Molecular cloning and functional analysis of the promoter of the human squalene synthase gene.

'We have cloned and characterized the 5''-flanking region of the gene encoding human squalene synthase. We report here the promoter activity of successively 5''-truncated sections of a 1 kilobase of this region by fusing it to the coding region of a luciferase reporter gene. DNA segments of 200 base pairs ... More
Identification of a minimum enhancer sequence for the type II collagen gene reveals several core sequence motifs in common with the link protein gene.

Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:8626777
'The type II collagen gene (Col2a1) is expressed primarily in chondrocytes. Transcription of Col2a1 is mediated by cell-specific regulatory elements located within the promoter and first intron. Here, we map a minimal enhancer and identify elements that determine cartilage-specific Col2a1 expression by analyzing the activity of a series of chimeric ... More

Skin, as the body's largest organ, has been extensively used to study adult stem cells. Most previous skin-related studies have focused on stem cells isolated from hair follicles and from keratinocytes. Here we present a protocol to isolate multipotent neural crest stem-like dermis-derived stem cells (termed dermal stem cells or ... More
