L-15

Leibovitz Medium for non-CO2 cell culture (Sigma L1518-500ML)

Used FY2025-6 for Marine Bio

Star Protocol (note: in the recipe for L-15, the 1.8% HEPES is not g/100 mL, but 1.8% of 1M!)

As made below, the pH was too low for marine organisms. Should probably make 1M HEPES and 10X PBS at pH8 before filter sterilizing.

Start with mL L-15
and mL 10X PBS
and: mL FBS
and: mL 1 M HEPES
