L-15 Leibovitz Medium - Liquid Medium

Leibovitz L-15 is designed for use in CO₂ free atmosphere in unsealed containers; hence, no sodium bicarbonate supplement is required. The medium is buffered by the higher amino acid content, in particular L-arginine is useful in growing established cell lines (e.g. Hep-2) in non CO₂ equilibrated environments.

Different from the original formulation, only 0.05 mg/l riboflavin are used due to risk of photo oxidative effects.
