Using Opti-MEM® I Medium
Opti-MEM® I Reduced-Serum Medium is a unique medium that contains insulin, transferrin, hypoxanthine, thymidine, and trace elements. These additional components allow for a reduction in serum supplementation by at least 50%. Opti-MEM® I medium uses a sodium bicarbonate buffer system (2.4 g/L), and therefore requires a 5–10% CO₂ environment to maintain physiological pH.
