Tissue culture is a method used in science to grow and study cells and tissues in a laboratory. It involves taking a small piece of tissue from a plant or animal and placing it in a special nutrient-rich environment. This allows the tissue to grow and multiply, creating more cells for research or other purposes.
Full definition
All human cell lines growing
in tissue culture dishes, and about 95 % of cells in a human being, split evenly, resulting in daughter cells of equal size.
This can increase growth, perhaps because it helps the plant tolerate the stresses
of tissue culture.

«Before, you could in principle test chemical compounds of interest against hundreds of cell lines, but it would require a lab member going to a freezer, taking out hundreds of vials — one for each cell line — and setting up hundreds of
tissue culture plates.
Because of these limitations, the AAV approach is best suited
for tissue culture based approaches that require modification of only a single allele of a gene, such as the introduction of heterozygous endogenous epitope tags, or the introduction of dominant mutations of a gene into the endogenous allele in cultured cells.

tissue culture by providing small numbers of dendritic cells.

human tissue culture cells in which we validate some of the results obtained in egg extract.
But researchers must wait until they have more detailed data
using tissue culture techniques borrowed from molecular biology before they can rule out other possibilities, such as the grasses themselves producing toxic...

coated tissue culture dishes for adherent culture in the same medium for another 2 — 3 days.
The probe we used in the in situ hybridizations was ribosomal RNA labeled with tritiated uridine, and we used Xenopus rRNA because it was available
from tissue culture cells.

new tissue culture techniques, helped save and globalise banana production.»
Barnes's team went on to show last year that soya extracts could also inhibit the growth of prostate cancer cells in
laboratory tissue cultures.
Spleen cells (3 × 107) from either experimental or control effector lymphocytes were dispensed into 75 -
cm2 tissue culture flasks along with 20 ml of boosting medium and 6 × 105 γ - irradiated (3,000 rad) BALB / c spleen cells (erythrocytes lysed).

conventional tissue culture techniques without this perfusion, you end up with something like a [n] M&M candy --[a joint with] a healthy surface, but dead inside,» Vunjak - Novakovic says.
Schweppe started searching the
American Tissue Culture Collection (ATCC) database of nearly 1,200 fingerprinted human cell lines, both normal and malignant, from tissues, organs and tumors.
Specifically, I am investigating how the cAMP / PKA signaling pathway affects collagen structure and deposition, using a hydrogel - based, three - dimensional culture system to create a model that is more physiologically relevant than one produced by standard two -
dimensional tissue culture methods.
Studies in mice and in
tissue cultures suggest that giving vitamin C with tuberculosis drugs could reduce the unusually long time it takes these drugs to eradicate this pathogen.
After 6 — 7 days of suspension culture, the neurospheres were replated onto matrigel - coated 60
mm tissue culture dishes for adherent culture in the same medium for another 2 — 3 days.
I do believe that the heart conditions in Cavalier King Charles Spaniels could be the end result of repeated immunizations by vaccines containing
tissue culture contaminants that cause a progressive immune response directed at connective tissue in the heart valves.
By contrast, 67 % -100 % of control banana plants after three years were either dead or TR4 - infected, including a Giant Cavendish variant 218 generated
through tissue culturing in Taiwan and reported to be tolerant to TR4

such tissue culture more readily available.
Wanting to pursue more experimental research, he headed to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for a postdoc to join a lab of engineers who focused on cell and
tissue culture experiments.
