描述

Gibco® GlutaMAX™ supplement provides an alternative to L-Glutamine with improved stability and cell health. GlutaMAX™ supplement is suitable in both adherent and suspension culture of mammalian cells with no adaptation required. GlutaMAX™ supplement is offered as a 200 mM L-alanyl-L-glutamine dipeptide in 0.85% NaCl. GlutaMAX™ supplement is also available pre-supplemented in a variety of media formulations. Compared to L-Glutamine, GlutaMAX™ supplement:

Minimizes toxic ammonia build-up
Improves cell viability and growth
Remains stable across a wide range of temperatures
Minimizes toxic ammonia build-up
Unlike L-Glutamine, GlutaMAX™ supplement does not spontaneously break down to form ammonia. Instead, cells cleave the dipeptide bond to release L-Glutamine as needed. This system prevents waste build-up and maintains a fresh supply of L-Glutamine during long-term culture.
