Spotlight on the applications of precision medicine
Modern medicine and therapies are designed to treat large groups of people with the same disease. Doctors may consider the sex, age, or medical history of the patient but most of the treatments are still based on what is most
The most common primary cells used in research
Human primary cells are isolated directly from human tissues and maintain the physiological characteristics of their original tissue. This article discusses the most common primary cells used by scientists (1,2). Endothelial cells In the human body, endothelial cells form a single-cell thick-walled
What are primary cells : advantages and limitations
Primary cell cultures refer to the cultivation of cells that are directly isolated from human or animal tissues and processed to grow under controlled conditions in vitro. They represent the in vivo state of cells more closely than immortalized cell
Introduction to cell culture and its applications
Cell culture is one of the crucial tools in basic scientific research. Cell culture refers to the cultivation in a controlled environment of cells derived from an animal or a plant. Today, various cell culture techniques are used in laboratories
All you need to know about cell culture media
Cell culture is an indispensable tool for the investigation of basic scientific research questions. To grow and maintain cells, cell culture media and supplements critical for their support are very important. Essential cell culture media components include carbohydrates, amino acids,
Cell culture growth media: History and the transition from natural to synthetic media
Cell culture or tissue culture is one of the techniques that are mostly used in life sciences in which cells are grown under controlled conditions, outside their natural environment. The cells or tissues, are removed from their original sources and
How to know which cell culture media is right for you
Growth media remains a key component of 3D cell culture experiments ensuring cells can thrive outside their natural environment. The continuous development and optimization of cell culture media provide new insights into the association between cells and cell culture media
