Animal Cell Culture: A Practical Approach

vide concise information such as the recommended treatment schedules, sample forms for registering patient data, approaches to analyzing noncompliance in treatment programs, usefulness of different methods of identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from clinical specimens, hypotheses on the spread of tuberculosis, and many others. The number of references vary from some chapters with 1-2 p...

Basic Techniques in Animal Cell Culture

One of the characteristics of most animals is that they are multicellular−in other words− they are composed of many cells. With this multicellularity comes the specialization of cells. In a multicellular organism, each cell does not have to carry out all the activities necessary for the life of the organism. Although most cells of any higher organism have many organelles and metabolic pathways ...

The Art of Animal Cell Culture for Virus Isolation

In virology, cell culture usually refers to the in vitro growth and manipulation of cells from a tissue obtained from a multicellular organism. The term “cell culture” is often used interchangeably with “tissue culture”. Cell culture remains integral with virology, as viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that require replication within a living cell to produce copies of themselves (i.e....

Design of a bubble-swarm bioreactor for animal cell culture.

A stationary bubble-swarm has been used to aerate a mammalian cell culture bioreactor with an extremely low gas flow rate. Prolonging the residence time of the gas bubbles within the medium improved the efficiency of the gas transfer into the liquid phase and suppressed foam formation. An appropriate field of speed gradients prevented the bubbles from rising to the surface. This aeration method...
