Rpmi 1640 and dmem medium
RPMI-1640 and DMEM are commonly used cell culture media. RPMI-1640 is a buffered, liquid medium that supports the growth of a wide variety of cells, including human and other mammalian cells. DMEM is another widely used cell culture medium that provides a balanced salt solution, amino acids, vitamins, and other components necessary for the growth and maintenance of many cell types.

and DMEM medium (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) containing 10% fetal bovine
serum (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA), 100 unit/mL penicillin, and 100
μg/mL streptomycin (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). Cells were cultivated
in a humidified incubator at 37 °C and 5% CO2.

10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) with or without antibiotics in a humid incubator under 5%
CO2 and 37°C conditions.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
