MammaryLife ™ Epithelial Medium Complete Kit

Product Description

MammaryLife™ is a new medium optimized specifically for the culture of Primary Human Mammary Epithelial Cells for better results. MammaryLife^TM supports the growth of these cells over a period of at least 15 population doublings

Primary Mammary Epithelial Cells cultured in MammaryLife culture medium out-perform cells grown in any similar medium. 

You’ll get consistently reproducible results with MammaryLife, because it’s balanced and supplemented expressly for Primary Mammary Epithelial Cells to maximize cell life expectancy.

• Your Primary Cells will plate better using MammaryLife optimized media (as compared to our nearest competitors’ media or traditional high-serum media)
• Your Primary Mammary Epithelial Cells will grow more quickly in MammaryLife than in other commercially-available media
• Primary Cells will maintain better morphology when cultured in MammaryLife

MammaryLife Basal Medium contains no antimicrobials and no phenol red. Lifeline^® offers antimicrobials and phenol red, but they are not required for eukaryotic cell proliferation.

• Kit format for formulation flexibility:  MammaryLife is offered in a kit format composed of MammaryLife Basal Medium and MammaryLife LifeFactors Kit (containing associated supplements and growth factors). This kit allows you to prepare fresh medium in your laboratory, extending shelf life and enhancing performance.
• Protective packaging:  MammaryLife Basal Medium is provided in a light-protected 500 mL bottle. The remaining LifeFactors are packaged in a convenient gas-impermeable pouch for easy storage.

Performance Tested to Ensure Value

MammaryLife Medium grows Human Mammary Epithelial Cells hrough at least 15 population doublings at rates that meet or exceed other commercially-available media while maintaining excellent cell morphology.

Superior proliferation: In comparisons with other commercially-available media, MammaryLife  induces superior proliferation and morphology in Human Mammary Epithelial Cells.
