{"product_id":"lucius-labs-mem","title":"Lucius Labs MEM","description":"\u003cp\u003eLucius Labs MEM (Minimum Essential Medium) is a foundational basal cell culture medium designed to support a multitude of different cell types in both suspension and adherent culture formats. Originally developed for general mammalian cell culture, MEM has proven effective for cultivating HeLa cells, HEK293 cells, fibroblasts, and numerous other established cell lines. Its versatility and reliability make it an essential medium for cultivated meat research and development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis formulation is chemically defined, providing precise control over nutrient composition and ensuring consistent, reproducible results across batches. The medium is animal-origin-free and serum-free, eliminating the variability and regulatory challenges associated with animal-derived components. It contains 1000 milligrams per litre of glucose, providing a moderate energy source suitable for a broad range of cell types. The formulation does not include L-glutamine or sodium pyruvate, allowing researchers to customise supplementation based on specific cell line requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMEM's chemically defined and animal-origin-free characteristics make it well-suited for cultivated meat applications, supporting the growth of muscle, fat, and connective tissue cells. Its established track record provides confidence for bioprocess development and scale-up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe powder format requires refrigerated storage at 2-8°C, with a shelf life exceeding six months. Liquid formulations are sterile-filtered and must be handled aseptically to maintain quality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lucius Labs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52170354262344,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0906\/7570\/8232\/files\/classical-media-624x624.jpg?v=1765457264","url":"https:\/\/cellbase.com\/products\/lucius-labs-mem","provider":"Cellbase","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
