AI Thread Summary
For finding the appropriate medium and serum for specific mammalian cell lines, researchers are advised to utilize resources like PubMed or Google Scholar. Searching for articles related to the desired cell line can yield valuable information in the methods section, which typically details the culture conditions, including medium and serum components. It's important to note that different laboratories may use varying media for the same cell line, so aligning with the conditions of previous experiments is crucial for replication. Additionally, the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) website may provide helpful information regarding cell culture requirements.

is there a website which shows which medium and serum is for a cell line (mammalian cells)? i have the problem looking for the right medium and serum.

thank you.

The easiest way is to go to Pubmed or Google scholar and search for articles using that cell line. The methods section will usually describe culture conditions including medium choice and its components. Keep in mind that some labs will use different medium for the same cell line. If you are trying to replicate or extend a specific set of experiments done by another lab, keep the conditions in-line with what they used. You might also find some useful info on the Amerian Type Culture Collection (ATCC) site.
 
thanks. :smile:

Thread 'I need help understanding this quote about recent Natural Selection'

I am reading Nicholas Wade's book A Troublesome Inheritance. Please let's not make this thread a critique about the merits or demerits of the book. This thread is my attempt to understanding the evidence that Natural Selection in the human genome was recent and regional. On Page 103 of A Troublesome Inheritance, Wade writes the following: "The regional nature of selection was first made evident in a genomewide scan undertaken by Jonathan Pritchard, a population geneticist at the...
