Cell Culture & Cell Culture Analysis Learning Hub

Introduction

Cell culture is an in vitro technique that provides an environment to study cell behavior, including development and differentiation. Using cell culture, researchers can investigate and use cells as models for basic life science research, personalized medicine, and drug discovery, including vaccine manufacturing and therapeutic antibody development.

Cell culture encompasses techniques from two-dimensional to three-dimensional cultures and involves mammalian cells, primary and stem cells, organoids, spheroids, and more. These cells require an environment that includes specific media, nutrients, and sera, and a sterile environment to prevent contamination. Learn more about the different types of cell culture, the reagents and supplements involved in culture, the cell-based assays researchers can perform, and the tools used to gain information about cellular function and behavior.
