Materials for cell culture — engineered substrates, animal-derived extracellular matrix and its synthetic mimics — are essential for the understanding and manipulation of cellular processes ...

“The composition of animal-derived components in fetal bovine serum is uncertain, and immunogenicity cannot be completely eliminated. In addition, batch-to-batch variability makes the cell ...

In light of these problems, scientists have developed animal component-free alternatives to augment cell culture for several decades. Recombinant, synthetic, or chemical media components offer ...

Each component of a cell has its own function. Animal and plant cells differ and they have similarities. Nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm and mitochondria are four cell components that are found ...

A look at the cells of different organisms and a comparison of the structures found in plant and animal cells. All animal cells are surrounded by a membrane which contains the cytoplasm.

South Korea-based alternative protein company Simple Planet has announced the development of a patented, serum-free cell ...
