Q:

What is the concentration of sugar in Lonza’s endothelial cell media?

A:

While the complete formulation of all of Lonza’s specialty media are proprietary, the EBM™, EBM™-2, and EBM™ phenol red free basal media will all contain D-glucose (dextrose) [CAS number 50-99-7] at exactly 1.0 g/L (5.55 mM).

There are no other sugars added to these media in the supplements which accompany these basal media (EGM™ SingleQuots™ Kit, EGM™-MV SingleQuots™ Kit, EGM™-2 SingleQuots™ Kit, and EGM™-2MV SingleQuots™ Kit) other than the sugars which may be found naturally in the undefined components (bovine brain extract and fetal bovine serum).
