RPMI 1640, simply known as RPMI medium, is a cell culture medium commonly used to culture mammalian cells. [1] RPMI 1640 was developed by George E. Moore, Robert E. Gerner, and H. Addison Franklin in 1966 at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center (formerly known as Roswell Park Memorial Institute), from where it derives its name. [2]

RPMI-1640 medium modified to contain 2 mM L-glutamine, 10 mM HEPES, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 4500 mg/L glucose, and 1500 mg/L sodium bicarbonate, for use in incubators using 5% CO 2 in air.

RPMI-1640 was developed by Moore et. al. at Roswell Park Memorial Institute, hence the acronym RPMI. The formulation is based on the RPMI-1630 series of media utilizing a bicarbonate buffering system and alterations in the amounts of amino acids and vitamins. RPMI-1640 medium is commonly used for suspension cultures of mammalian and primary cells, …

RPMI-1640 medium has been used for the culture of normal and neoplastic leukocytes. For R&D use only. Not for drug, household or other uses. Powdered media are hygroscopic and should be protected from moisture. The entire contents of each package should be used after opening.

RPMI-1640, when properly supplemented, has demonstrated wide applicability for supporting growth of many types of cultured cells, including fresh human lymphocytes in the 72 hour phytohemaglutinin (PHA) stimulation assay.
