I want to thank everyone for their responses. Since we deal with two labs
and only one lab sends us RPMI media, I wanted to have enough on hand. I
guess I'll have to nicely ask the other lab to either send us some, or tell
me which formula to use. This ought to rock the boat a little. (like I
haven't done that before).

Joe,
The best one to uses is the one that the facility you are sending them to
wants you to use.  The facility that we send ours to even furnishes it to
us.

Greetings Histoland,
    once, again, I need to tap into your vast knowledge. We will be sending
out
bone marrow, lymph node and placenta cases for flow cytometry and
cytogenetic studies. Looking through the catalogs, there are about 15
different formulas for RPMI. Can any one tell me which formula is the best
one. I'm at a loss. thanks in advance

Joe Nocito
