Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) is a common cell culture medium developed from early work using Basal Medium Eagle (BME) with normal mammalian fibroblasts and certain subtypes of HeLa cells.

• Low endotoxin - < 0,25EU/mL
• Mycoplasma tested
• Liquid media products are formulated with cell culture grade WFI water
• Manufactured in a cGMP environment

MEM is modified with higher concentrations of amino acids to more closely approximate the protein composition of mammalian cells. When supplemented with serum, MEM has been used for cultivation of a wide variety of cells grown in monolayers, such as fibroblasts.
