What is the most distinct feature of animal cell culture?
Animal cells can grow in simple glass and plastic containers. While growing microbial cells and plant cells, if the nutritive medium is changed and the cells are replenished with the culture medium, the cells will grow indefinitely. However, animal cells, depending on the tissue they have been isolated from can grow even in the best nutritive media to only limited generations. The animal cells in culture also exhibit contact inhibition. Fill in the blanks: (a) ———— was the first drug to be produced by mammalian cell culture. (b) ————- are used for scaling up the production of suspension cells. (c) In———– the cells adhere to the total curved surface of the microcarrier beads. (d) An————- microscope is used for visualizing cell cultures in situ. (e) ——————involves the storing of cells at very low temperature. (f) ———————is a highly effective therapeutic agent who reverses acute renal allograft rejection. (g) ——————play
