Ham’s F-12K (Kaighn’s) Medium (F-12K)

Product Description

Ham’s F-12K (Kaighn’s) Nutrient Mixture is an improved version of Ham’s F-12 nutrient mixture, based on the formulation by Kaighn. Ham’s F-12 is derived from Ham’s F-10 medium and has increased concentrations of choline, inositol, putrescine, and several amino acids. Ham’s F-12K further enhances the concentrations of amino acids and pyruvate while reducing the glucose content. Additionally, modifications have been made to the composition and concentration of salts (Konigsbergs).

Ham’s F-12K medium was originally designed for culturing primary human liver cells as well as differentiated cells from rats and chickens. It is suitable for single-cell seeding of CHO cells under serum-free conditions and can also be used for certain other types of mammalian cells, such as chondrocytes and rat prostate epithelial cells, when serum is added.

This F-12K (Kaighn’s) Medium is modified as follows:
