Ask our AI about this Product

RPMI 1640 Medium was originally developed to culture human leukemic cells in suspension and as a monolayer. Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) 1640 Medium has since been found suitable for a variety of mammalian cells, including HeLa, Jurkat, MCF-7, PC12, PBMC, astrocytes, and carcinomas. We offer a variety of RPMI 1640 Medium modifications for a range of cell culture applications. Find the right formulation using the media selector tool.

This RPMI is modified as follows:

With: L-glutamine, HEPES, Phenol Red

The complete formulation is available.

Using RPMI

RPMI 1640 Medium is unique from other media because it contains the reducing agent glutathione and high concentrations of vitamins. RPMI 1640 Medium contains biotin, vitamin B12, and PABA, which are not found in Eagle's Minimal Essential Medium or Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium. In addition, the vitamins inositol and choline are present in very high concentrations. RPMI 1640 Medium contains no proteins, lipids, or growth factors. Therefore, RPMI 1640 Medium requires supplementation, commonly with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS). RPMI 1640 Medium uses a sodium bicarbonate buffer system (2.0 g/L), and therefore requires a 5–10% CO2 environment to maintain physiological pH.

For Research Use or Further Manufacturing. Not for diagnostic use or direct administration into humans or animals.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

How light sensitive is RPMI 1640 media? Should I also be protecting it from LED light?

While we know that different wavelengths of light are worse than others for exposure, we would recommend as a best practice to protect the medium from all forms of light exposure including LEDs, as much as possible to ensure optimal performance, as several components within the medium are light sensitive, such as vitamins.

What is the density (g/L) for RPMI 1640 Medium?

We have specific gravity information for RPMI 1640 Medium: 1.006 kg/L. In this case, the specific gravity is the same as density as the solvent is water.

What is the shelf life of the DMEM, high glucose, pyruvate medium once the bottle is opened and the medium is supplemented?

We do not provide stability data for the product once it is opened as it would depend on the usage and storage conditions.

Find additional tips, troubleshooting help, and resources within our Cell Culture Support Center.

Is it necessary to store DMEM, high glucose, pyruvate medium in the dark?

Yes, the medium should be stored in the dark because there are some components in the medium such as HEPES, Tryptophan, and Riboflavin, etc. that are sensitive to light.

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.
