This medium, when properly supplemented has broad applicability, particularly for non-transformed cells. Medium 199 is widely used for vaccine production, in vitro cultivation of primary pancreatic explants, and lens tissues.
Application
Medium 199 has been used:
as a suspension media to maintain the primary neuronal cultures
as a component of the collagen gel for ex vivo embryonic heart culture
to maintain the ovarian tissue sections as part of the slow-freezing protocol
