CTS GlutaMAX Supplement can be used as a direct substitute for L-glutamine at equimolar concentrations in mammalian and stem cell culture with minimal or no adaptation. Compared to L-glutamine, CTS GlutaMAX Supplement:
- Minimizes toxic ammonia build-up — Unlike L-glutamine, CTS GlutaMAX Supplement does not spontaneously break down to form ammonia. This prevents waste build-up and maintains a fresh supply of L-glutamine during long-term culture.
- Improves growth efficiency and performance of mammalian cell cultures — Lower levels of ammonia result in improved cell viability. In addition, culture conditions are more controlled due to the consistent concentration of CTS GlutaMAX Supplement that is not possible with L-glutamine.
- Remains stable across a wide range of temperatures — CTS GlutaMAX Supplement retains full functionality at room temperature or 2–8°C, for convenient storage and handling.
This size of CTS GlutaMAX Supplement is provided in bioprocess container format with the chamber constructed from Aegis 5-14 film.
