Lung Fractions S9/Microsomes

Lung subcellular fractions refer to different organelles and structures that can be isolated from lung tissues of a choice of species; through the process of homogenization. The technique involves breaking down lung tissue through homogenization and separating their cellular components, depending upon their size, density, permeability, and other physical properties. With easy access to subcellular fractions, they have become valuable tools for drug toxicity studies and drug metabolism studies.
