Opti-MEM™ I Reduced-Serum Medium is an improved Minimal Essential Medium (MEM) that allows for a reduction of Fetal Bovine Serum supplementation by at least 50% with no change in growth rate or morphology. Opti-MEM™ I medium is also recommended for use with cationic lipid transfection reagents, such as Lipofectamine™ reagent. Opti-MEM™ I medium can be used with a variety of suspension and adherent mammalian cells, including Sp2, AE-1, CHO, BHK-21, HEK, and primary fibroblasts. We offer a variety of Opti-MEM™ I modifications for a range of cell culture applications.


This Opti-MEM™ I is modified as follows:
With
• GlutaMAX™
• Phenol Red

Using Opti-MEM™ I Medium
Opti-MEM™ I Reduced-Serum Medium is a unique medium that contains insulin, transferrin, hypoxanthine, thymidine, and trace elements. These additional components allow for a reduction in serum supplementation by at least 50%. Opti-MEM™ I medium uses a sodium bicarbonate buffer system (2.4 g/L), and therefore requires a 5–10% CO2 environment to maintain physiological pH.

Para su uso en investigación o procesos de fabricación posteriores. No apto para uso diagnóstico ni para la administración directa en seres humanos ni en animales.

Preguntas frecuentes

Is there any other difference between Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium and Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium, no phenol red besides the presence/absence of phenol red?

The formulation of Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium and that of Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium, no phenol red is the same except for the presence of phenol red in the former medium.

Where can I find the osmolality for my lot of Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium?

We do provide osmolality information on the certificate of analysis. All lots of Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium will meet the osmolality specification of ≥280 to ≤320 mOsm/kg.

Can I aliquot and freeze Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium to conserve it longer? If so, for how long can it be stored?

Sorry, we don't have data to show that frozen Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium has a longer shelf life. Actually, we recommend storing this medium at 2-8 degrees C in the dark. We do not recommend freezing the medium because it may precipitate.

I noticed that Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium does not contain any serum. Why do you then refer to it as "Reduced Serum Medium"?

Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium is a serum-free medium. The reason why it is called “reduced-serum medium” is because you only need to supplement this medium with 1-5% FBS instead of the standard 10% FBS.

Opti-MEM I Reduced Serum Medium can be used as is (without serum) for transfection of cells. However, for long-term cell culture, you need to add serum to the medium to keep cells healthy.

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.
