Cryopreservation is a well-known laboratory technique for storing cells as well as other biological material at temperatures close to liquid nitrogen (-196°C). It offers the researcher a standby in case…
Cell culture is a realm within itself. The medium in the culture dish includes nutrients that cells require to live and thrive. But, every once in a while, uninvited invaders…
The whole process of obtaining human tissue for studying organ development and diseases is tedious due to ethical concerns and difficulty of availability. 3D cell culture offers a unique alternative…
A crucial step before taking up research work with human or animal tissue is to ensure appropriate ethical and medical legislation and guidelines for experiments. This can also deal with…
Liver hepatocytes in cryopreservation contain major drug-metabolizing enzymes. For growing liver hepatocyte cell culture, a quick-thaw protocol is performed in the case of cryopreserved primary cells. However, if the thawing…
