This workbook was developed for use with Module 2 of the InVitro Insights Cell Culture Training Program developed by Becton Dickinson. The problem that follow are presented in increasing degress of co ...
It is well established with avian retroviruses that cells are most efficiently infected just after they are trypsinized. Trypsinization does two things. First it apparently exposes the receptor to whi ...
No two cell lines behave exactly the same so you must learn the peculiarities or personality of each of the cell lines with which you work. Irrespective of cell type all cells are diluted or dispersed ...

The kitchen makes Tris TD Tryp/TD PBS and VE.Tris is a fairly complex Tris-buffered physiological saline solution. It is used to wash cells and is preferable to TD unless you need a Ca++/Mg++ free sol ...
We use two different kinds of media. Most cells are grown in DMEM. A few lymphoid cell lines are grown in RPMI. Cells grown in DMEM must be grown in a 10% CO2 atmosphere. As a result most of our incub ...
The onion root tip and the whitefish blastula remain as the standard introduction to the study of mitosis. The onion has easily observable chromosomes and the whitefish has one of the clearest views o ...
BackgroundThis method of DNA staining utilizes ethanol to fix the cells and permeabilize the membrane which allows the dye (Propidium Iodide) to enter the cells. Propidium Iodide (PI) is a DNA-binding ...
