Tissue Culture

Tissue culture is the rearing up or cultivation of cells or tissues in certain media, which can be viewed under a biology microscope. It involves a series of processes and its successful results can be used in a wide variety of scientific fields. Tissue culture has developed methods particularly those involving some degree of automation. Representative protocols for the applications of these techniques were also drafted.

The methodology in tissue culture has progressed dramatically and some methods may use a biology microscope. Tissue culture application has mushroomed in recent years that it has become a part of diverse biological inquiries. Tissue culture has embraced a wide scientific field, establishing methods and protocols useful for dissociating tissues, establishing primary culture cells from vertebrates, invertebrates, and plant sources, harvesting of cells, reproducing them, or cloning them efficiently and properly, regulating the culture environments and also quality controls measures.

Nothing is more important and imperative in the study of cell and tissue culture than the subject of quality control measures. Such studies may use a biology microscope. These involve several protocols and discussions dealing with cleanliness, containers, nutrients, preservations, contaminations, identifications-serological, karyological, biochemical, even the transport of and shipping instructions for cells in culture, and lastly on all matters of vital interest and importance to high quality work in vitro.
