Hi Aubrey, you need 100s mg/L for tissue culture. Hair hydrolysis also requires a lot more effort. Egg white might be a better starting point. TLC wont produce enough materials though, you might have to go to column chromatography but then buying amino acids turns out to be much cheaper. Mammalian tissue culture media is not that expensive, 500 ml costs about $30.

Yes, but you'd likely get trace quantities that aren't all that useful. What is the goal?--
