Fischer’s Medium (1X), Liquid
With L-glutamine
For leukemic cells of mice

Catalog Number LM 014-01
Storage Temperature 2~8°C

Product Description
For resistance to chemotherapeutic agents, whole animals and parallel studies of cells in vitro were used. Fischer’s medium originally was formulated to support propagation of cells from leukemic mice. Fischer’s medium supports clonal reproduction of cells, particularly lymphoblasts from primary explants or from cells in culture.

LM 014-01 contains 204 mg/L L-glutamine and 1125 mg/L sodium bicarbonate. The selection of a nutrient medium is strongly influenced by (1) type of cell, (2) type of culture (monolayer, suspension, or clonal) and (3) degree of chemical definition necessary. It is important to review the literature for recommendations concerning medium, supplementation and physiological parameters required for a specific cell line.

Storage/Stability
The liquid medium should be stored at 2~8°C in the dark. Deterioration of the liquid medium may be recognized by (1) precipitate or particulate matter throughout the solution, (2) cloudy appearance, (3) color change, and/or (4) pH change. The nature of supplements added may affect storage conditions and shelf life of the medium. Product label bears expiration date.

Biological Performance Characteristics
The growth-promoting capacities of Fischer’s medium are tested in a medium containing 10% FBS using an appropriate cell line(s). Growth rates are examined through three subculture generations and compared with parallel cultures grown in standardized control medium. Cells are counted and growth is plotted as a logarithmic function of time in culture, and seeding efficiency, doubling time, and the final cell density are determined. During the testing period cultures are examined microscopically for a typical morphology and evidence of cytotoxicity.
