Usually DMEM/F12 is recommended for Mammosphere formation assay. But I've grown some of my cell line in RPMI medium. I was wondering if I transfer them into DMEM/F12, how do they react? Is that OK if I use RPMI?
RPMI is quite OK for tumor sphere assays, people have even used MEM for this purpose. I have tried all (above two+DMEM/F12) these three and found that RPMI is equally good as of DMEM/F12. ADB
