Catalog Number: RPM-8012

Roswell Park Memorial Institute 1640-Premium Plus (RPMI-1640-Premium Plus) contains L- Alanyl-L-Glutamine as well as ingredients to allow for serum reduction. Additionally, RPMI-1640- Premium Plus needs 5-7% FBS and provides more consistency.

RPMI-1640-Premium Plus is formulated with ingredients that support a 50% decrease in the need for FBS supplementation. Notably, the inclusion of synthetic elements like recombinant insulin, albumin, and transferrin enhances batch-to-batch consistency by minimizing variations typically caused by serum differences. In this formulation, L-Alanyl-L-Glutamine serves as a stable and efficient glutamine source. Moreover, the reduced dependency on FBS helps to lower the overall cost of cell culture experiments.

Roswell Park Memorial Institute 1640-Premium Plus (RPMI-1640-Premium Plus) Contains all twenty essential and non-essential amino acids with higher concentrations than regular and  premium formulations. It incorporates the elements that significantly reduce the need for a serum for cell culture.

Critical components:

– Human Transferrin (Holo): prevents improper iron storage and delivery in cell culture
systems, which is a major contributor to oxidative stress and protein damage.
– Insulin Recombinant
– Trace of other elements that mimic the elements in fetal bovine serum.
