Basal Medium Eagle (BME) is a widely used synthetic basal medium for supporting the growth of many different mammalian cells. BME was originally developed by Harry Eagle for HeLa cells and mouse fibroblasts, when he discovered the minimum requirements for cell growth in vitro. BME has since been used for other human lines, including WI-38 and MRC-5.


This BME is manufactured as follows:
WithWithout
• Phenol Red• L-glutamine
• HEPES

The complete formulation is available.

BME contains eight B vitamins, the ten essential amino acids, plus cystine, tyrosine, and glutamine. There are a number of modifications of BME: Minimal Essential Medium, Glasgow's Medium and Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium. This BME formulation contains Earle's salts for use in a CO2 incubator.

Product Intended Use
For in vitro diagnostic use. CAUTION: Not for human or animal therapeutic use. Uses other than the labeled intended use may be a violation of local law.

Dual-Site cGMP Manufacturing
Gibco™ BME is manufactured at a cGMP compliant facility, located in Grand Island, New York. The facility is registered with the FDA as a medical device manufacturer and is certified to ISO 13485 standards. For supply chain continuity, we offer an identical Gibco™ BME product made in our Scotland facility (410100-026). This facility is registered with the FDA as a medical device manufacturer and is certified to the ISO 13485 standard.

BME contains no proteins, lipids, or growth factors. Therefore, BME requires supplementation, commonly with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS). BME uses a sodium bicarbonate buffer system (2.2 g/L) and therefore requires a 5-10% CO2 environment to maintain physiological pH.

This product is not used for in vitro diagnostic purpose in some countries.
For Research Use or Further Manufacturing. Not for diagnostic use or direct administration into humans or animals.

자주 묻는 질문(FAQ)

How long can I keep my media after supplementing with serum?

Generally speaking, media can be used for up to three weeks after supplementation with serum. There are no formal studies to support this, but it is the rule of thumb used by our scientists.

My medium was shipped at room temperature but it is supposed to be stored refrigerated. Is it okay?

We routinely ship media that require long-term storage in the refrigerator at room temperature. We have done studies on representative media formulations to show that media can be at room temperature for up to a week without a problem.

How can I remove mycoplasma contamination from my cell culture medium?

Very often mycoplasma contamination cannot be removed from the culture so it should be discarded. You may have a unique culture that you prefer not to discard and would like to try to clean it. Ciprofloxacin and Plasmocin have reportedly been used for this application. If interested in a protocol or directions for use, check with the antibiotic supplier or published literature. Note that mycoplasma are very difficult to remove from culture and spread easily so the treated cultures should be quarantined until clear of mycoplasma, and your laboratory should be thoroughly cleaned.

I see a decrease in growth of my culture. What should I do?

Try changing the medium or serum. Compare media formulations for differences in glucose, amino acids, and other components. Compare an old lot of serum with a new lot. Increase initial cell inoculums. Lastly, adapt cells sequentially to new medium.

My cells are not adhering to the culture vessel. What should I do?

This can occur if cells are overly trypsinized. Trypsinize for a shorter time or use less trypsin. Mycoplasma contamination could also cause this problem. Segregate your culture and test for mycoplasma infection. Lastly, check for attachment factors in the medium.

Abstract
Inhibitory activity of a heterochromatin-associated serpin (MENT) against papain-like cysteine proteinases affects chromatin structure and blocks cell proliferation.
Authors: Irving James A; Shushanov Sain S; Pike Robert N; Popova Evgenya Y; Brömme Dieter; Coetzer Theresa H T; Bottomley Stephen P; Boulynko Iaroslava A; Grigoryev Sergei A; Whisstock James C;
Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:11821386
'MENT (Myeloid and Erythroid Nuclear Termination stage-specific protein) is a developmentally regulated chromosomal serpin that condenses chromatin in terminally differentiated avian blood cells. We show that MENT is an effective inhibitor of the papain-like cysteine proteinases cathepsins L and V. In addition, ectopic expression of MENT in mammalian cells is ... More
Sulfation in the Golgi lumen of Madin-Darby canine kidney cells is inhibited by brefeldin A and depends on a factor present in the cytoplasm and on Golgi membranes.

'Madin-Darby canine kidney cells are more resistant than most other cell types to the classical effects of brefeldin A (BFA) treatment, the induction of retrograde transport of Golgi cisternae components to the endoplasmic reticulum. Here we show that sulfation of heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs), chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs), and proteins ... More
Pituitary Adenylyl Cyclase-activating Polypeptide Prevents Induced Cell Death in Retinal Tissue through Activation of Cyclic AMP-dependent Protein Kinase.

Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:11847214
Multiple neuroactive substances are secreted by neurons and/or glial cells and modulate the sensitivity to cell death. In the developing retina, it has been shown that increased intracellular levels of cAMP protect cells from degeneration. We tested the hypothesis that the neuroactive peptide pituitary adenylyl cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) has neuroprotective ... More
