Liver is largest gland of the body. Hepatocytes are primary functional cells of liver, constitute approximately 70% of liver’s mass. Hepatocytes play a crucial role in metabolism (carbohydrate, lipid, drug) detoxification and…
Primary cells are gold standard to study cellular physiology, biochemistry (e.g. metabolic studies, aging, signalling mechanism etc.), the effects of drugs and toxic compounds. Primary Cells are defined as cells directly…
In the realm of cellular biology and biomedical research, “One-size fits all” doesn’t hold true. It demands precise and adaptable cell culture solutions for studying cellular metabolism or disease mechanisms. …
Cell lines are in vitro model systems that are widely used in different fields of medical research, especially basic cancer research and drug discovery. Their usefulness is primarily linked to…
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…
