MS culture medium was designed by Murashige and Skoog for tobacco cell culture in 1962. It is characterized by high concentration of inorganic salts and ions, and is a relatively stable ion balance solution. Its nitrate content is high, and the amount and proportion of nutrients are appropriate, which can meet the nutritional and physiological needs of plant cells. Therefore, it is widely used as the basic medium for rapid propagation of most plant tissue culture. Based on this, this culture medium was named after them.

MS medium is a very commonly used tissue culture medium, in which many variants have been developed. This culture medium originated from White's culture medium and was initially developed for the c*tion of tobacco callus tissue. Compared to white culture medium, the concentration of all components increased. Increasing nitrogen to 50-60mM significantly stimulates the growth of tobacco cells, but concentrations of 80mM or higher are clearly detrimental to the cells. The increase of all other elements, especially macro elements, also stimulates the growth of callus tissue. Due to the high concentration of minerals, MS medium is a very rich saline medium, which may be too salty for certain plant species. To avoid this issue, MS is usually used in conjunction with trace elements at full concentrations, but with constant elements at concentrations of half or three-quarters as originally described by the author. Sometimes, the original MS vitamins are replaced by vitamins from Linsmaier and Gamborg B5 culture media, as the concentration of thiamine is higher compared to the demand for this vitamin in plants.

MS培養基是Murashige和Skoog于1962年為煙草細胞培養設計的，其特點是無機鹽和離子濃度較高，是較穩定的離子平衡溶液，它的硝酸鹽含量高，其養分的數量和比例合適，能滿足植物細胞的營養和生理需要，因而適用范圍比較廣，多數植物組織培養快速繁殖用它作為培養基的基本培養基。 基于此，這種培養基就用他們的名字來命名了。

MS培養基是非常常用的組織培養基，其中已經開發了許多變體。該培養基起源于懷特的培養基，最初是為種植煙草愈傷組織而開發的。與白色培養基相比，所有成分的濃度都增加了。增加至50-60mM氮顯著刺激煙草細胞的生長，然而濃度為80mM或更高顯然對細胞不利。所有其他元素的增加，特別是宏觀元素的增加，也刺激了愈傷組織的生長。由于礦物質濃度高，MS培養基是一種非常豐富的鹽水培養基，對某些植物物種來說可能太咸了。為了避免這個問題，MS通常與全濃度的微量元素一起使用，但與作者最初描述的濃度的一半或四分之三的常量元素一起使用。有時，原始的MS維生素被Linsmaier和Gamborg B5培養基的維生素所取代，因為相對于植物對這種維生素的需求，硫胺素的濃度較高。
