Gene Expression is affected when cells are cultured in petri dish by Albin P. Doctor of Pharmacy Posted Fri 12 Sep 2008 9:36am When trying to figure out how different respond to drugs and other environemnts in the body scientists turn to cells. The cultured cells are grown in petri dishes now with the onset of tissue microarrays the process is getting more advanced A new Brown University study shows that nerve cells grown in three-dimensional cultures use 1,766 genes Read on »
Vaccine Makers Struggle to Speed Output Cell-Culture Technology Hastens the Process, but Slow-Growing Virus Remains a Problem by Meryl Nass Posted Mon 14 Dec 2009 12:00am From the Nov. 25 WSJ: Cell culturing vaccines is not a well-developed technology, and may not shave much time off vaccine production. Nor will the plant's cutting-edge... the lengthy and onerous process of incubating viruses to make vaccine are years away... It isn't clear how many benefits cell-culture technology will offer.
