Product Name DMEM Low Glucose Medium (1 g/L Glucose), with L-Glutamine and Sodium Pyruvate
Catalog No. ATR-CCR-0032
Description Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium formulated with low glucose at 1 g/L, supplemented with 4 mM L-glutamine and 1 mM sodium pyruvate. The low glucose formulation is preferred for primary cell culture, stem cell maintenance, and cell types where high glucose concentrations may induce metabolic alterations. Sodium pyruvate provides an additional glycolytic intermediate that supports cells grown at low serum concentrations. The medium is sterile-filtered and endotoxin-tested.
Intended Use Culture of primary cells, stem cells, and metabolically sensitive cell lines requiring physiological glucose levels.
Principle / Technology Low-glucose basal medium providing nutrients for oxidative metabolism rather than glycolytic metabolism
Detection Method Cell morphology assessment and growth curve analysis by cell counting
Sample Type Primary fibroblasts, embryonic stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, neuronal cultures, and glucose-sensitive cell lines
Performance Range / Specifications Glucose: 1.0 g/L; sodium pyruvate: 1.0 mM; L-glutamine: 4.0 mM; phenol red indicator included
Sensitivity / LOD Supports doubling times equivalent to high-glucose DMEM for glucose-sensitive cell types
Specificity Formulation identical to standard DMEM except glucose concentration; contains all MEM amino acids at elevated concentrations
Reaction Conditions / Protocol Supplement with 5–20% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin-streptomycin before use; incubate at 37 °C in 5% CO₂; replace medium every 2–3 days
