Introduction:
Contains the macro- and micronutrients as described by Gamborg, et al. (1968).
This medium was developed for the initiation and growth of soybean cell suspensions. This medium contains no Ammonium Nitrate; it does contain Ammonium Sulfate and increased levels of Potassium Nitrate. Concentrations of NH4+ over 2 mM inhibited cell growth.

Application Notes
Plant Species: Soybean (Glycine max) This medium was developed for the initiation and growth of soybean cell suspensions.
This medium contains no ammonium nitrate; it does contain ammonium sulfate and increased levels of potassium nitrate.Concentrations of NH4 + over 2 mM inhibited cell growth. Thiamine, an essential vitamin, is at a concentration 10x that of Linsmaier & Skoog Medium.
