Mammary Epithelial Cell Growth Kit contains all components to be added to Mammary Epithelial Cell Basal Medium (
ATCC PCS-600-030) to create a complete medium designed to support epithelial cells derived from a patient's breast. The Mammary Epithelial Cell growth kit contains rH-Insulin, L-Glutamine, Epinephrine, Apo-Transferrin, rH-TGFα, Extract P, and Hydrocortisone Hemisuccinate. To support the proliferation and plating efficiency of mammary epithelial cells
ATCC PCS-600-010, all components from the Mammary Cell Growth Kit must be added to the Mammary Epithelial Cell Basal Medium (
ATCC PCS-600-030).
ATCC’s Human Mammary Epithelial Cells cultured in Mammary Epithelial Cell complete medium (basal medium plus growth kit) is an optimal serum-free culture model for many research areas. Common uses of HMEC include the study of breast cancer development, three-dimensional culture, and carcinogen screening.
