Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) is a widely used basal medium for supporting the growth of many different mammalian cells. Cells successfully cultured in DMEM include primary fibroblasts, neurons, glial cells, HUVECs, and smooth muscle cells, as well as cell lines such as HeLa, 293, Cos-7, and PC-12. We offer a variety of Gibco DMEM modifications for a range of cell culture applications. Find the right formulation using the media selector tool.

This DMEM is modified as follows:

With: Low Glucose, Sodium Pyruvate

Without: L-glutamine, Phenol Red, HEPES

The complete formulation is available.

DMEM is unique from other media as it contains 4 times the concentration of amino acids and vitamins than the original Eagle's Minimal Essential Medium. DMEM was originally formulated with low glucose (1 g/L) and sodium pyruvate, but is often used with higher glucose levels, with or without sodium pyruvate.

Product Use

For Research Use Only: Not intended for animal or human diagnostic or therapeutic use.

DMEM contains no proteins, lipids, or growth factors. Therefore, DMEM requires supplementation, commonly with 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS). DMEM uses a sodium bicarbonate buffer system (3.7 g/L) and therefore requires a 5-10% CO2 environment to maintain physiological pH.

For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

What is the manganese concentration in DMEM? Do you offer manganese-free DMEM?

Manganese is not present in the formulation of our catalog DMEM media products.

I understand that some media are worse than others for fluorescence imaging. How do I choose?

Most media contain phenol red, which can quench fluorescent dyes in the visible wavelengths. Most media also contain autofluorescent components, such as riboflavin, which can reduce signal-to-background. We offer FluoroBrite DMEM and HEPES-based Live Cell Imaging Solution, which have been optimized for fluorescent imaging. We also offer a number of media without phenol red. But if none of these are reasonable options for your experiment, then we also offer BackDrop Background Suppressor ReadyProbes Reagent, which can be added to quench media autofluorescence.

Should I be concerned about phenol red in my media when labeling my live cells with fluorescent dyes?

Some cell types accumulate phenol red, and this can pose a problem in the use of many fluorescent probes. Phenol red can quench visible-wavelength dyes and, although phenol red is non-fluorescent, various impurities may be fluorescent. We have many phenol red-free media to choose from. Our Live Cell Imaging Solution (HEPES-based) and our FluoroBrite DMEM have been optimized to be phenol red-free as well as to be non-autofluorescent.

Do you offer media without phenol red (phenol red-free media)?

Yes, please visit this page for a list of our phenol red-free media (http://tools.thermofisher.com/content/sfs/brochures/Phenol_RedFree_Media_Glance.pdf).
