Product Details

A modified version of Ham’s F-12 medium, Ham’s F-12K (Kaighn’s) Medium was originally formulated for use with or without supplemental serum. Adding components like putrescine,
thymidine, hypoxanthine, zinc, and higher levels of sodium pyruvate and amino acids than found in traditional media, can compensate for the lack of serum. Depending on the cell type cultured however, FBS and growth factors are often added to the medium.

HMF-9019 contains 292 mg/L L-glutamine and 2500 mg/L sodium bicarbonate.

(1) Precipitate or particulate matter throughout the solution
