Sodium Pyruvate 100 mM Solution

Category: Products & Services > Cell Culture & Transfection Reagents > Supplements > Sodium Pyruvate

Sodium Pyruvate is commonly added to cell culture medium as an energy source in addition to glucose. Since the cells make sodium pyruvate as an intermediate metabolite in the glycolysis pathway, it is not necessary to supplement all cultures. However, if the cells have been grown in medium supplemented with sodium pyruvate, we recommend the supplementation is continued as the cells become accustomed to this addition and their growth will lag without it. Gibco® Sodium Pyruvate, 100 mM Solution is formulated as 11 g per liter of water. The final concentration of sodium pyruvate used in most cell...

3 M Sodium Acetate, pH 5.5

Category: Products & Services > Buffers & Chemicals > General Chemicals > Other General Chemicals

Ambion® Molecular biology grade, 3 M Sodium Acetate solution is supplied in one bottle containing 100 mL. The solution is certified RNase-free, economical, and ready-to-use. Due to the ubiquitous presence of RNases, manufacturing products for use with RNA is especially challenging. Ambion®'s nuclease-free reagents and buffers are manufactured in facilities specifically designed to prevent the introduction of nucleases. Highly sensitive RNase assays are performed at several different stages of the manufacturing process to ensure the highest quality. These reagents are rigorously tested for cont...

Alexa Fluor® 488 hydrazide, Sodium Salt, 1 mg

Category: Products & Services > Labeling & Detection Products > Labels & Labeling Kits > Aldehyde-, Ketone-, & Carboxylate-Reactive Labels

The Alexa Fluor 488 hydrazide is a low molecular weight, cell membrane—impermeant, aldehyde-fixable molecule that can be used as a cell tracer. This green-fluorescent polar dye can be loaded into cells by microinjection, infusion from patch pipette or uptake induced by our Influx pinocytic cell-loading reagent (I-14402).

Insulin, Transferrin, Selenium, Sodium Pyruvate Solution (ITS -A), 100X

Category: Products & Services > Cell Culture & Transfection Reagents > Supplements > Insulin, Transferrin, & Iron Supplements

Gibco® Insulin, Transferrin, Selenium, Sodium Pyruvate Solution (ITS -A) is used as a basal medium supplement in order to reduce the amount of Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) used to culture the cells. Originally used with RPMI 1640 and Minimum Essential Medium (MEM), ITS-G is now routinely used with other basal media to support a wide variety of cell types in the presence of 2-4% FBS. Insulin promotes glucose and amino acid uptake, lipogenesis, intracellular transport, and the synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. Transferrin is an iron carrier and it may also help to reduce toxic levels of oxyge...
