DermaLife Ma Culture Medium DermaLife Ma is a new low serum, PMA-free, Cholera toxin-free medium optimized for the culture of Human Epidermal Melanocytes (HEMa). DermaLife Ma supports the growth of these cells over a period of at least 10 population doublings. DermaLife Ma contains no antimicrobials and no phenol red since these components that can cause cell stress and “masking effects” that may influence experimental results (Lifeline offers these traditional supplements; however these are not needed, or recommended, to achieve optimal cell performance).
DermaLife Ma Culture Medium Components DermaLife Ma is offered in a kit format composed of basal medium and associated supplements and growth factors called “LifeFactors®.” This kit allows you to prepare fresh medium in your laboratory, extending shelf-life and enhancing performance. DermaLife Basal Medium is provided in a light-protected 500 mL bottle. The remaining LifeFactors (growth factors and supplements) are packaged in a convenient gas-impermeable pouch for easy storage. Quality Testing for Guaranteed Consistency and Reproducible Results Lifeline Cell Technology manufactures products using the highest quality raw materials and incorporates ISO style • Sterility Testing Negative for bacteria and fungal growth • Osmolality 315 +/- 10 mOsm • pH 7.5 +/- 0.2 • Endotoxin < 0.5 EU/mL • Cell Testing Rate of proliferation and morphology
