MIO-M1 cells

Spontaneously immortalized human Müller glia cell line
Technology No. 88-012

Cells grow indefinitely under adherent conditions in the presence or absence of extracellular matrix proteins. Optimal medium for cell growth: DMEM medium containing high glucose and stable glutamine, supplemented with 10% foetal bovine serum. 

Under normal culture conditions, MIO-M1 express markers of mature Müller cells, including cellular retinaldehyde binding protein [CRALBP], glutamine synthetase, vimentin and epidermal growth factor receptor-[EGF-R].

The cells are NOT intended for Stem cell Research.

 

Size: Cells are shipped growing in 25cm2 flasks.
