Can rat or mouse SkMCs be cultured using the Skeletal Muscle Cell Growth Medium (C-23060)?
Yes, the Skeletal Muscle Cell Growth Medium can also be used for rat, mouse and rabbit SkMC. We recommend to use the medium right after isolation. Cells that were isolated and cultured in a different medium beforehand may have adapted to the other medium. An abrupt medium change causes stress to the cells resulting in reduced growth rates and lower differentiation capacities.
