Making Things Grow: Insect Cells, Stem Cells, and Primary Cell Lines All Pose Challenges for Cell Culturists
Laura Defrancesco | Jun 21, 1998 | 5 min read
Date: June 22, 1998 Insect Cell Culture Media, Suppliers of Primary Cell Culture Media Advantages for Protein Expression Studies Since the mid-1950s cultures of insects--cockroaches, fruit flies, and leafhoppers, to name a few--have been the object of quiet study by physiologists and cell biologists. But along came genetic engineering and suddenly insect cultures have been put in the spotlight since they provide advantages over both bacterial and mammalian systems for recombinant protein prod
