NCTC Media, developed by the Tissue Culture Section, Laboratory of Biology, National Cancer Institute (NCI), Bethesda, MD to establish and maintain the L929 strain of mouse cells.
Appearance
White to light pink, homogenous, free flowing powder
Solubility
Colorless to slight yellow, clear, complete
Directions per Liter
Dissolve 7.89g in 800-900ml of ddH2O stirring gently until completely solubilized. If required, add 2.2g/L sodium bicarbonate. Adjust pH of the medium to the desired level. Add additional water to bring the solution to 1L. Filter-sterilize using a 0.22 micron membrane filter. Aliquot into sterile containers. Do not autoclave. Contains heat-labile compounds that can be damaged with autoclaving.
Storage and Stability
Store powdered media at RT. Stable for 12 months after receipt. Opened bottles should be capped tightly and kept in a dark, low humidity environment. Prepared media should be kept at 4°C and used within a short period of time.
