We used to buy specific plant cell culture media from GIBCO. The formulation was just right for our cell lines. Unfortunately, when Invitrogen took over they stopped production on all plant cell media. We were lucky, since our Invitrogen rep sold us 2 years worth of media for a song. But after that second year, we weren't able to find a replacement. It's still a problem for our research to this day.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00927917953498336594noreply@blogger.com
