RPMI 1640 is the most commonly used medium in the Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) series developed by Moore et al for the culture of human normal and neoplastic cells in vitro. It's a modification of McCoy's 5A medium specifically designed to support the growth of human lymphoblastoid cells in suspension culture. Presently the medium is extensively used for a wide range of anchorage dependant cell lines. The medium is known to support growth of cells both in presence of 5-20% FBS and in absence of FBS. It is modified to include heat stable components to ensure that product efficacy is maintained after autoclaving. L-glutamine is heat labile, hence has been omitted from the formulation.
